The genius of Leah continues.......2007-07-03

On her second album, Leah branched out in more experimental directions. this album is edgier and less glossy than her first album, Veiled, but that is not a bad thing. While Veiled was about healing, Alchemy (as the name implies) is about experimentation. And her phenominal understanding of the art of songwriting and musical composition are displayed well here. It stands as a testament to the quality of this album that eight years after it was released it is experiencing a resurgence thanks to being featured prominently on So You Think You Can Dance. This album wasn't really advertised at all, and never got radio exposure. Through the power of cult followings, it is finally getting some of the exposure it is due. This album is a gem waiting to be uncovered, and you will not regret purchasing it. I bought it when it came out originally, and I still listen to it regularly, as I do with Veiled too. You will love this album!

Even better than her first album..........2003-03-22

Love this album more than her first! Very strong vocals & lyrics and very entertaining album overall!! I highly recommend this album.

Not only an excellent artist, but a wonderful person as well.......1999-10-24

I had the oppurtunity to meet Leah when I lived in San Diego, before she put out her first album. She actually played a demo tape for me in her car, and I remember wondering if the public had the capacity to appreciate her. I am SO GLAD IT DID! It was incredible. Since then, I've followed her career. I feel lucky to have crossed paths with her! She's got an amazing quality to her voice, and she's very beautiful.

GREAT CD!!.......1999-09-23

Leah Andreone has been my favorite singer for almost 3 years now. Her songs never get boring, because they are all very unique. She has a great talent for singing, and writing all kinds of different variaties of songs, all of which amaze me!!

A Totally Fresh and Interesting album.......1999-06-23

I bought this album on a whim - I had never heard of Leah before. I am amazingly impressed. This is one of the best albums I've heard in a long time. Her music complex, rich and vibrant. The songs cover a wide varitey of styles while still maintaining a similar element that connects them all together. The whole album has a very gothic sound to it while still being upbeat and funky. I highly recommend this album.

Los Lame-Os.......2006-06-20

I remember back in the day I was chillin in bed, watching VH1 late at night, when the video for "No Tengo Dinero" came on. I was like, "WTF is this? Who is that ugly mofo? Where did those strippers come from?" For real, y'all. "No Tengo Dinero" is wack and so are the rest of the songs on this CD. I don't know what's up with all the 4-5 star reviews.

UGH!.......2005-04-04

There is no doubt in my mind that this is one of the WORST albums I ever bought! It is absolutely dreadful. It's not even really from Latinos. Terrible.

Fun and enjoyable, what else is music supposed to be?.......2005-02-03

I've had this CD since 1998 when it came out. Great fun and it gets played every summer. I'd buy it again if I lost it. Crack open a beer, sit on your deck, hang with some friends, and enjoy. Sweet...

dance & fun.......2004-09-12

I guess you don't expect much of this album and indeed it's simply a dance & fun album, but for that reason it's quite good. Spanish fun tracks - different from each others, some nice samples and all in all a good soundtrack for your summer vacation

Fun! Upbeat!.......2003-06-08

This music will get you going... If you want to start the day off with energy or just plain start dancing, this music will do it! I use it to just put others into a positive mood or get them to change perspective. You can't remain upset after listening to this. My advice? Get it and start MOVING! Not for couch potatoes.

Album Description

Come to Me blends the best of latin, flamenco influences, funk and a touch of trip-hop with jazz into a single cohesive style.

This Gregory James Band release is a remarkable blend of influences and styles, under the stewardship of Benny Rietveld, whose adept arrangements enhance the sublimely distinctive melodies. Each track is as original as the next, and, perhaps resisting the temptation to follow traditional Jazz classification, Come to Me is instantly identifiable as a James' band production…from tabla to turntables…while pushing upon the boundaries of jazz.
