About Better Than Well - live at the Saxton:

Ginger Leigh, a profound singer-songwriter and top-notch entertainer has just released her 8th CD, "Better Than Well - Live at the Saxon." This new release features some of Austin's top musicians backing Leigh's spirited, sensual and resounding vocal work. "Better Than Well" takes Leigh back to her roots offering more of a "Texas" sound than her other 7 CD's to date.  It is a collection of Ginger Leigh originals, some new, some classics, as well as a cover of Rodney Crowell's "Come on Funny Feelin'" and Phoebe Snow's "Poetry Man." The title track, "Better Than Well," is a mid-tempo pop song that speaks to Ginger's drive and positive approach to succeeding in life and love.

The CD is a traveling experience. It begins upbeat and exciting, like packing for a vacation with opening track 'Time To Move On". Somewhere in the middle it slows down and draws you in with Leigh's rendition of Phoebe Snow's "Poetry Man" like sipping and savoring a midnight martini with friends in a sexy luxury hotel in Paris. Toward the end, the icing on the cake is the funky soul of "Best of Me", the sweet sting of the last night of vacation at one of New York's hottest dance clubs. At the finish of "Better Than Well ? Live at the Saxon" you want to share with all of your friends, as if you had just returned from an exhilarating trip. The diversity of Leigh's vocal-stylings, songwriting, her choice of compositions and the genre-bending nature of this disc, make it a perfect stand-alone CD one puts on constant rotation and continues to journey on with each spin.
