Synopsis

Album Description

"Coffee, Chocolate & Men", the latest album by Platinum Plus Universal recording artist Jen Rathbun features 11 new original compositions. Jen offers works that have been compared to Rosemary Clooney and Billie Holiday, and that contain a unique blend of humor, sultriness, and double-entendre. "Coffee, Chocolate & Men" was co-produced Robert Metzgar, a three-time winner of Cashbox?s Producer of the Year, and Tony Migliore, another award winning producer. Migliore and Metzgar filled the studio with top Nashville talent, including a contingent of the Nashville Symphony, to play on the predominantly jazz-flavored album.

CD Reviews

Brilliantly produced tawdry jazz album

Go.com Music Editor | 01/13/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"It's no wonder that Jen Rathbun has been nominated the Female Vocalist of the Year in the State of Texas for the Texas Music Awards. The houston jazz star has the greatest jazz album ever and Billboard's review "brilliantly produced tawdry jazz album" is exactly right. This album is worth whatever you have to pay for it. It's absolutely sensational."

Hot and Rich

"I've been following Jen Rathbun for a couple years now. In her new CD, "Coffee, Chocolate & Men", she brings her music to a whole new level. Her first CD, "Beautiful Day", was a sampler of her wide ranging writing styles. Chocolate is focused, delivering a rich dose of her smoky-room cabaret style. These are fun songs, hangin-with-the-girls songs, songs that make you raise your eyebrows and grin knowingly. From the dusky ballads, "Seven Digits Away", and "I'm So Lonely", to the bawdy "Yard Man" (makes me blush), to the right-on "Monday Blues"...she reveals too-true moments, and gives us singable melodies with unforgettable lyrics. My favorite cut is "Cool Cat", full of crooning innocence and inuendo. Her voice is warm and dense, thick as buttered rum, and the backing jazzy instrumentals are crisp and bright. This lively CD would be perfect music for a 30th birthday bash, a bachelorette party, or a let-your-hair-down dinner with friends after a long week. Honey, it's a hottie!"
