By Request.........Renee Olstead

This CD was released in 2002 and has 8 great tracks. Even though Renee was 12 years old at the time she has a voice that was well beyond her age. the songs she sings on this CD are
1. Sunday Kind Of Love
2. Sentimental Journey
3. Georgia On My Mind
4. Taking A Chance On Love
5. Bill Bailey
6. What A Wonderful World
7. Over The Rainbow
8. At Last

Now all these songs are Jazz standards that one would not expect a 12 year old to sing but Renee has the voice to take all the songs to a new level. She carries on the legacy of the Golden Age of Jazz & Blues with her unique shadings and touch that's quite rare in today's offerings. "By Request.." is a marvelous expression of love that's sure to please. Classic standards, creative arrangements, superb all-star musicians
and Renee's sensuous styling make this a must have
