    She Who Weeps is a transition set of sorts for Cassandra Wilson. Having had good notices for her Blue Skies album (which found her interpreting standards in a style similar to Betty Carter), Wilson performs "Chelsea Bridge" and "Body and Soul." Most of the other selections still use the free funk rhythms that were a carryover from the singer's association with Steve Coleman and the M-Base players, although no horns are present this time around, just a three- or four-piece rhythm section. Interesting but not overly memorable music.
