Description
Craig Street steers Cassandra Wilson into shadow and space on New Moon Daughter, the 1995 Blue Note set now breathing easily across a 2LP cut. Her band leans into negative space, so the smallest choices feel huge. Hear the loping bass and hand percussion under Death Letter, and the pedal steel sigh that lights up Harvest Moon.
This pressing opens the room up. Low end sits deeper, and the instruments separate so you can trace every guitar scrape and brushed snare. Wilson’s voice hangs center with a kind of calm authority that rewards late-night plays.
If you’d rather order online, you can buy Cassandra Wilson records online with us.
File it beside Nina Simone for its fearless songbook raids, though the palette here is more rustic blues than piano torch. It also belongs with the 90s Blue Note reimagining era, where acoustic textures and subtle electronics got drafted into jazz storytelling.
Standout moment for headphone people, the low tom pulse tucked under Strange Fruit gives the performance a heartbeat without disturbing the hush. Small touches like that are why this edition feels definitive. You hear more, but nothing gets brighter than it should. Available to order online or in our Melbourne record store, your crate needs this one.
