Lotte Lenya Sings Kurt Weill is a shockingly well-done reissue (Sony MHK 60647). She amused and melted me last night as I turned the Half-Century in the big chair.
Enjoy!
Janis Ian, susan Werner, Holly cole, Alison Krauss, Joni Mitchell, Ricki Lee Jones, K.D. Lang...
HEAVENLY VOICES a collection of the finest female vocals in etheral, darkwave and gothic (cleopatra). also A GOTHIC TRIBUTE TO THE COCTEAU TWINS (cleopatra). LYCIA (projekt)
some that I didn't see mentioned (of course my eyes were crossing by the end, so I may have missed a few)
Angelique Kidjo
Tori Amos
Kate Bush
Nora Jones (22 year old - new)
I just bought Jennifer Warnes "lush life" and once again I must admit I was mistaken... She has a wonderful voice and sings beautifully. In my earlier posting, I recommended Lorrie Morgan's "Secret Love".. She is a country singer and this album is a departure from that and is nothing like her other recordings. Both Dianne Schuur and Lorrie Morgan are strong singers, unlke Norah Jones, which may put some of you off. I still feel that most of you will find it worth your time.
