2014 reissue HQ 180g 45rpm vinyl 2LP -A substantial leap forward. `My One And Only Thrill' is an intensely creative milestone, transcending genre distinctions of jazz and blues to offer a haunting personal musical statement that will appeal to all music-lovers. As with her acclaimed live shows she captures and holds her audience in the palm of her hand.

In a musical landscape ripe with great singers it is Melody's unique approach to songwriting that sets her apart. Although her songs often sound like jazz, they defy easy categorization... a touch of Peggy Lee's poetry, a hint of Norah Jones and Joni Mitchell. Melody's tunes already feel like classics, possessed of a timeless quality rare in today's music.

"In my eyes, there's two kinds of music," says Gardot. "There's the kind that rushes out at you, and the kind that settles in and lets you come to it. I prefer the latter of the two. I like the idea of hearing music in the distance; you're drawn to it and you want to know what it is. To me, that's beautiful, that's the essence of listening to music: discovering it, exploring it and finding those little spaces."
