They say 'great minds think alike' VHG!

Don't forget Judy Collins' version of John Lennon's "In My Life" A real classic IMHO.

Another less well known singer (in the UK at least) is Bonnie Raitt.

She is well known in the USA as a blues singer but I am not a great fan of her blues singing. However she has a great balled voice and has done same great ballads.

Here is one ballad called Love has no pride

Another Bonnie Raitt balled, "The song about the Midway" (Joni Mitchell song)

Yet another Bonnie Raitt ballad (slow blues), Guilty.

Thanks Captain 2...enjoyed "In my Life" very much ! It looks as if it is on the new double CD I bought last night on Ebay !

[Tilly2]

Thank you for the Fairport Convention video, VHG..

[Supermike]

Thank you very much C. It was great to hear her version of "In My Life" again. I still prefer it to the Beatles version. Thanks again. Mike

Only too happy to oblige. Most of these were great favourites of my youth, although I appreciate serious music now. Good memories though !

One of my favourite female singers (and terribly under-rated) is Jennifer Warnes.
