Kenko, you don't have Sarajevo Blues, do you? That album's a bitch to find.

rumple, she's in my "obvious" list. :)

I guess Dido's too obvious. Lovely voice though.

How about Maggie Reilly?

Preach on, Brother Dobbs. That woman has a voice like an angry God, and her band ain't exactly slouches either. In a just world they'd be huge.

Ann Peebles, and April March have voices I love, too.

Dobbs, you can get Sarajevo Blues directly from Tzadik, or from the band.

I've been on a Regina Spektor kick lately.

I would appreciate something from The Gossip, if anyone can post it. Beth Ditto sounds like a young Etta (really!)

My favorite Gossip track is Don't (Make Waves).

kenko, thanks for the links. Tzadik CDs are a fortune in Canada.
