You think so? I recall her getting lots of praise. From that era, I prefer Dusty Springfield, and Connie Francis from a bit earlier. That may have as much to do with song selection as anything.

Something about her voice just grabs at your soul. It’s like she’s giving last rites to someone actively passing.

I liked Bobbie Gentry from that era. Of course, Grace Slick had a good voice too, almost as good as Bobbie Gentry and just about as good as Maureen McGovern. Not shabby company to keep.

I’ll say. What I know if this singer whose name I never knew, which isn’t much, it’s not a great voice.

Connie Francis was a great singer, and Dusty Springfield did indeed have a good voice.

“White Rabbit” does not showcase voice real well.
