Neneh Cherry & The Thing – The Cherry Thing

Neneh Cherry is bringing back the ATTITUDE into jazz music. Jazz music, the original rebellious genre, often in many new releases lacks that rebellious touch – Neneh Cherry is smashing that theory to pieces. Raw, deep, energetic, The Thing go deep and Neneh’s vocals are fresh and cool as a cucmber. Awesome.
