Of the deepest blue is the blues 'Things Ain't What They Used to Be' when Bettina Pohle sings it with her incomparably deep, warm voice on her new album 'Sophisticated Lady' (released on Valentine's Day 2014 by Octason Records), accompanied with reliable elegance by the Ralf Ruh Trio (currently nominated for the Swiss Jazz Award). 11 standards including ' 'S Wonderful' or 'Just One of Those Things', and two original compositions, 'Nothing Ever Stays the Same' and 'Let's Go Out and Have Some Fun' take the listener on an hour long acoustic journey through some of the classics of American vocal jazz history. In addition, Nashville resident and Johnny Cash composer Thomas O'Connell provided the quartet with 'My Heart Goes With You', a light-hearted song that rounds off the playlist of the CD beautifully.
