Box 423508, San Francisco, CA 94142, USA—MKR-005 Availability:See Dori Turner's CDBaby site for availability Ecto priority:Recommended Group members:Dori Turner—vocals, guitar Produced by:Jeff Gutman Comments:This is a very bare but spirited recording. It's just the singer and her guitar but she's utterly captivating. Her voice doesn't impose itself on you, but whispers instead. There's a purity to it that's a little bit like that of a young Joan Baez. "Your Arms" is a moving, simple song that's rife with sensuality. "The stars in my eyes" is a dreamy little song that I instantly fell for. This is a very nice debut and it bodes well for Turner's future.
