Listen free to Cassandra Wilson – Belly Of The Sun (The Weight, Justice and more). Cassandra Wilson continues to move down a highly eclectic path on Belly of the Sun, the somewhat belated follow-up to Traveling Miles. While displaying a jazz singer's mastery of melodic nuance and improvisatory phrasing, Wilson draws on a variety of non-jazz idioms - roots music, rock, Delta blues, country, soul - to create a kind of earthy, intelligent pop with obvious crossover appeal.

In 1993, Cassandra Wilson released Blue Light 'Til Dawn, the album that redefined her career and made her a commercial success. Its blend of pop covers (Van Morrison, Joni Mitchell), delta blues and original compositions, combined with a stripped-down instrumentation, gave it a mass appeal rare in jazz. The formula was repeated on 1995's New Moon Daughter with more risks (yes, "Last Train To Clarksville") and success. We must count Wilson's last album - the Miles Davis tribute Travelling Miles - as a one-off special project, so Belly of the Sun is the third part of the trilogy. This was originally intended to be an entirely blues-based record, and the recording was largely made in the train depot in Clarksdale, Mississippi, to achieve a suitable ambience. Some of the most memorable tracks from those earlier Wilson albums are by Robert Johnson, and it's fair to say that she's effectively re-invented Johnson's music.

With Belly of the Sun, in unifying what were once considered disparate styles and song forms with her languorously rich vocals and offbeat instrumental textures, she continues to be the queen of her own genre. Largely recorded at a one-time train station in her native Mississippi, Belly of the Sun ranges from country blues great Fred McDowell's gritty "You Gotta Move" (popularised by the Rolling Stones and here featuring acoustic guitar wiz Richard Johnston) to Brazilian immortal Antonio Carlos Jobim's winsome "Waters of March" (featuring a children's choir).
