Renee Geyer has done the impossible for an Australian vocalist: to be considered a world-class soul diva and living legend of the most human of crafts. 3 decades of highly emotive and touching renditions have deservedly placed her on a pedestal and Tenderland can only add to her status as the finest female voice in Australia. From the opener, Thieves In the Temple (Prince), Geyer's voice communicates pure soul with a bluesy backdrop of sparse instruments which always remain respectful, complimenting that voice and never overpowering the lady in the spotlight. This self-produced LP is the culmination of 30 years in the music industry and one listen immediately proves that Renee has continually grown as an artist, collecting plaudits and respect from the industry's finest players, many of whom appear on Tenderland: Steve Hadley (bass/drums), Bruce Haymes (keyboards), Ross Hannaford (guitar), Vika and Linda (backing vocals). If you love R&B-styles; grooves in your soul, Tenderland will satisfy and occasionally surprise with its eclectic choice of composition ranging from classic standards to forgotten contemporary gems.
