O’s Notes: Chicagoan Alyssa Allgood is in prime form on From Here, backed by a world class band including Geoffrey Keezer (p), John Patitucci (b), Kendrick Scott (d), and Greg Ward (sax). “Burn”, “Still”, “Both Sides Now”, “No Good”, and “Brave Little Flower” are some of the twelve passionate ballads that make this set sizzle. Allgood sings with the poise of a seasoned professional. This all-original set is impressive and noteworthy.
