"Darcy Cooke...is a very appealing and swinging jazz singer. She has a warm and inviting voice, youthful enthusiasm, a mature delivery, and a full understanding of the lyrics that she interprets. Careless Love may be her debut recording as a leader but she already has a fully formed style....Careless Love finds Darcy Cooke already in her prime, displaying versatility and a beautiful voice. This is a release well worth getting by anyone who enjoys first-class jazz singing."
