"Yvonne Flores and her debut album is musical magic from a wonderful singer armed with a sensuous voice that is sure to grab critical attention. There are a great number of female vocalists on the jazz scene; many are good, some are average, others poor but few have made such a graceful and memorable entrance as Yvonne Flores does on the well titled Sheer Bliss" (reviewed by Ed Blanco)

Contributing to the musicality of the album includes some of the industry's musicians. Producer/guitarist Ray Obiedo, percussionist Pete Escovedo, flutist Elena Pinderhuges and Santana Band members pianist David K Matthews, trombone and trumpet Jeff Cressman and Bill Ortiz.
