Name Doesn't Say "Soul Music," But She's All That and More!, February 24, 2006
For everyone who claims they don't sing them like they used to, here's the CD for you. While her voice doesn't have the power of Artha Franklin (in her heyday), she's just a shade below in her and a little powerful than Glady's Knight in her heyday - somewhere between those two women is Trijntje Oosterhuis.
It should also be worth noting that while there are other powerful soulful voices there - she doesn't feel the need to belt out lines just for the sake of doing so - like the best soul singers of the 1960's, she's puts the power of her soulful voice into shading the lyrics and not just showing off how loudly she can sing.
If you miss soul music of the 1960's - this CD is both modern and will take you back.
