This album could be called her
"quiet" album. Laid back and self-assured, Reeves strolls
down pop music lane, selects a few of its classics and glosses each
with the luster of jazz. She takes Carole King's "Will You Still
Love Me Tomorrow" and stretches it over a threadbare arrangement,
and cradles "Morning Has Broken" in her breast, as if she
were Mother Earth surveying the very first morning.
Music, as always, figures in prominently
with Reeves. Yet, the understated approach of the musicianship of this
album is particularly interesting. Jazz drummer Terri Lyne Carrington,
guiding a capable ensemble including Mulgrew Miller, Jeff Littleton,
Kevin Eubanks, Bob Shepard, and others, produces That Day. These
musicians never falter and give Reeves a solid ground to get her
sensual groove on.
