Best female vocals on CD

Did anyone mention Jane Olivor? She just released a new cd last year which I'll have to pick up. She can sing songs I don't even like but her phrasing is unique and a haunting voice. cheers, Bluenose

Poor Celine. She's got such a nice voice but so poorly chosen songs! (With some exceptions of course!)

EVA CASSIDY!!! She has a voice that I can and have listened to for hours on end - so clear and pure and moving. What an incredible talent; what an incredible tradgedy that she was taken from the world at the age of 33.

Bluenose, you will probably like Laura Smith - her 2nd with "My Bonny Lies Over the Ocean"- the best rendition of this song that I've heard - from The East Coast. Also, on The "Heart of Stone" CD Join Mitchell's track is wonderfull! Listen also to Dolores Keane - with John Prine on "In Spite of Ourselves" and several by herself. Regards, Colm (Brampton, Ont.)

Lisa Garrard is the voice on "Gladiator", of course and former lead vocal with Dead Can Dance....she has a couple of her own too. The SDSS sound of the film Gladiator featuring LG's voice in the theatre is the finest I have heard short of a live rendition.
