bryan >>Someone in her inner circle, if she listens to anyone, needs to level with her: time to stop smoking or stop singing. Or at least limit the singing to jazzy numbers she can smokily croon through. But even that won't be possible after another year or two of smoking. Listening to much of this new collection is painful, and not because of Mendoza's arrangements.<<
well, i agree with you bryan, i want her to stop smoking too, because of the harm it must be doing to her health, but after all this time i doubt that will happen...but here is the irony...i love the sound of her voice...i am not in pain listening to her sing...it amazes me that people hear voices so differently.... ******************************************** Kate Bennett: www.katebennett.com Sponsored by Polysonics/Atlantis Sound Labs Over the Moon- "bringing the melancholy world of twilight to life almost like magic" All Music Guide ********************************************
