Query: A Shameful Production

The fact that this album must be given at least 1-star, should not be a sign that it is worth any more than -0- Should I have awarded that much, it would have been for the production; the instrumentation as well as the background vocals and the mixing. However, the vocalist on this CD appears no more qualified to sing the pieces herein as would any of 1000 choir girls from either school or church. Whatever made Columbia use a vocalist with such an incredibly weak voice for songs with such rich tradition is a mystery and a SHAME. I suppose there was something in her contract which allows her to choose whatever she wants to sing. However she is doing herself and the public a disservice by attempting works for which she is so far underqualified. She will leave an indelible black mark on her record for which people will never forget nor forgive her for. Hopefully, she will have another profession to fall back on, as singing should be no more than a hobby for this young lady.
