.
The Joel Dorn Sessions From Leslie Mendelson Set For Release was a top story for this week. Here it is again: (PR) On November 17, 2009 Ryko will release The Joel Dorn Sessions, six songs culled from an early studio session with Leslie Mendelson and Grammy Award winning producer Joel Dorn. Comprised of everlasting covers and original songwriting, this six-song EP harkens back to a classic era which Joel Dorn helped define and which Leslie Mendelson masters so effortlessly.
The legendary jazz and r&b producer Joel Dorn (Apr. 7, 1942 – Dec. 17, 2007) initially heard Mendelson's first self-released solo CD in 2005 and was sufficiently impressed to offer his expertise. Before he passed in 2007, Dorn was instrumental in landing her current recording deal with Ryko, and they worked hand and hand in the studio on these 6 tracks. Leslie went on to record her Ryko debut, Swan Feathers with Rob Mounsey producing.
Together, Dorn and Mendelson created a collection of the pristine songs filled with timeless splendor. Mendelson's stunning song craft and heartfelt lyrics stand out on original songs like "I Won't Tell", "Last Goodbye" and "I Know You Better Than That". And with effervescent soul and pure subtlety, Mendelson and Dorn recreate Rolling Stones' "Waiting On A Friend", George Harrison's "Beware of the Darkness" and The Ronettes' "Be My Baby". - more on this story
