If you are a Veronica Swift fan, this is one of the best produced performances of hers I have seen to date. Don't get me wrong, she is aways great as are her bands. The integrity of this video, the visuals and the audio are impecable and don't get in the way of this brilliance in any way. Rock on Veronica and friends!! To all of you about to expierience this work, enjoy!!!

I am not sure if he is still doing but I have done some studio sessions (I play harmonica) with the Engineer Ron Davis. At that time, as I understood, he had been the head engineer at the Monterey Jazz Festival for 18 years (this was quite a few years ago) and he shared with me about the simultaneous live performance, radio broadcast and recording has was managing on the main stage. He is a world-known excellent engineer if he is still doing the gig.

I am a huge V Swift fan. This was an interesting departure for me from listening to her jazz work. I'm a vocalist myself and Veronica is just a huge talent - a brilliant jazz singer. I get it though. She is young with mad musical skills and not content to keep doing the same thing over and over again. This was completely new music to me from her. I'd love to see her go the route of Kurt Elling and stay closer to her jazz roots but still be able to do new and fresh music. Whatever she does - it's going to be interesting to watch. What a gift she is.

I'm saddened by these commenters saying her outfit makes her seem less talented or genuine. It's just clothes. Jazz has historically been an outlet for people constrained by social norms, so these statements are especially ironic. And this a music FESTIVAL. This performance is naturally going to be more outlandish than a traditional jazz bar.

Veronica is an exceptional musician. One of the few standouts of her generation. She is also someone who is highly sensitive as an artist. One of the things that I notice about her is that she is up to the task when it comes to playing with good musicians. She will match or exceed them. Another thing I've noticed is that in so many instances she carries lesser talent. Unfortunately, she does this a lot. Most of the musicians that gig with her are good. But, they are not up to the her standard. If you really want to see Veronica shine, place her with good musicians. And, Veronica if you are reading this, make a clear distinction between the musicians you choose to enjoy playing around, and those with whom you choose to make great music. This is just my opinion. At Monterey, Veronica sang her butt of. But, she also carried her musicians. Listening to these musicians, I would have only brought along the pianist. Apart from that, I would have gone with a different group of talent.

She comes across as someone who hasn't found her own voice or identity yet. She tends to talk, sing, and dress like she's doing an imitation of someone else. Sort of playing a character. Obviously she's a fantastic vocalist, but she'll be next level when she comes into her own.

TBH the showbiz style put me off a bit though the sugarcane version of 'Don't Listen 'Til You Hear From Me' was really interesting. I hope her voice can take singing like Janis Joplin. There is so much pressure on artists to adhere to industry expectations. Her depth and breadth of color, dynamics, dexterity and range was a bit lost in this heavily produced band. All good though. She is an artist still finding her way and exploring different mediums of expression as do all great artists.
@LyndonH-zm1or8 ай бұрын
I too hope her vocal chords can stand her singing like Janice Joplin. It is my understanding that singing like that can permantly damage your vocal chords and change your voice and not in a positive way. I have seriously listened to jazz for over 70 years and can cite three instances where singing like that is a very bad idea. 1. Is Janice Joplin and what her voice became. 2. Is a young woman that was learning to sing jazz in Port Aransas. Texas, who had a beautiful voice but started to sing like that and the crowd went wild and wanted more, but fortunately there were two musicians who took her aside and cautioned her not to sing like that. 3. Is Lon Chaney, Jr. who one Halloween to please some kids started to abuse his vocal chords to sound like a monster and the kids wanted more and more and he complied, but it ruined his voice. Lon Chaney, Jr. back in the day made a number of scary horror movies. Scary at least to a young kid like me. I hope someone can get this information to Veronica. It would break my heart if she ruined her voice.
