Gwen McCrae - One of The Truly Great Soul Singers.......2003-12-22

I recently saw and MET the great Gwen McCrae during her recent (2003) appearance at New York's Joe's Pub. She was warm, gracious and announced that she was leaving soul music for a return to GOSPEL music! She also revealed her true age (I won't tell), but she looked to be about 38!

We also discussed this CD, "Psychic Hot Line." I have always liked this album, mainly because of "Loving Peter To Pay Paul," "Standing Room Only," and the title tune, which is very, very funky, indeed! Gwen has a distinctive voice, the type that when the sound of her voice is heard, you immediately think, "that's Gwen McCrae."

I liked the fact that she incuded Aretha Franklin's "Today I Sing The Blues" here along with Mitty Collier/Fontella Bass's "The Soul of A Man."

Since meeting Gwen, I aim to collect the few other CDs that I don't already own by her and look forward to her valiant foray into gospel. I just KNOW she'll be great.

Gwen sings the blues..........2003-12-17

When this album was originally released in 1996, it marked the return of the well-renowned southern soul vocalist from her hiatus during much of the 80s and 90s.. This time around she's singing the blues, with that trademark soultry, sassy and soulful voice. Although it's a little rougher this time, the woman sounds completely at home with a live band cookin' right behind her with a bunch of great songs.. There's not one bad song on this album.. For me the highlight would be "Standing Room Only".. she sings this song with so much heart and emotion. These days some people seem to think vocal gymnastics = soul.. they obviously haven't heard a real soul singer.. There is no hype here, Ms. McCrae is the real thing.. Maybe when Christina Aguilera can sing like this, i'll listen to her....
