On 'Sheila' the world's press wrote:

Sheila Jordan is one of the foremost of contemporary jazz vocalists. - Black Music & Jazz Review

Jordan makes these tunes all her own, with personal, almost prayer-like readings on tales of personal devotion...Listening to this record may make you wonder where this honest, sensitive yet powerful vocalist has been all these years. - Downbeat *****

This album is a welcome addition to Jordan's sparse discography, and it further establishes her as a vocalist of considerable accomplishment - Coda

Detroit singer courageously performs a dozen standards with only Andersen's acoustic bass behind her. But Jordan pulls it off�Her talent is unquestionable. - Billboard (Recommended LP)
