O’s Notes: We’ve cited Leo Sidran is having a voice reminiscing of Michael Franks in past recordings. Leonor Watling is in the same mode and together there are a vital pair, Leo & Leo. Their vocal styles match, resulting in a laid back, cool set. They’re kind of funky on “Tonight Someone Is Me” and add a touch of reggae on “It’s Never Too Late”. We also enjoyed “Entre Chien Et Loup”, “What’s Trending”, “The Art of Conversation”, and “Nobody Kisses Anymore”.
