I listened to the tape of Loretta Holloway singing my song "Here's To Life" last night. Wow can she sing. Wow. She is a real fine singer. Where does she sing?

Warmest regards, Artie Butler
 
 
  
Dear Loretta: I received your video last Friday and watched it that very night. You sound better than ever and haven't aged a day since I last saw you. "Guess Who I Saw Today" is simply mesmerizing. You have a way of setting up and song and capturing a mood that is very powerful.

Sincerely, John Disney

WOW - WHAT A SURPRISE!! I'm listening to this album as I type -- fantastic! I'm not even sure what obscure search led me to find it in the first place but I'm sure glad I ordered it. Loretta, you sound amazing! I appreciate that you keep the same mood -- I so many times regret when albums that have a nice intimate piano/vocal texture disrupt the mood by added combos, drums, etc. This is a great album for appreciating the some of the darker/sadder feelings -- very thoughtful music and check the line-up of songs. This voice is an unusual combination (to me) of Randy Crawford, some of the southern sensuality of Toni Tenille and Gladys Knight, but with a real soulful power that none of these singers could achieve. Even songs I normally do not invest much time on ("I've Never Been To Me") take on greater depth here. "Strange Fruit" is very moving. And "I Can't Make You Love Me" -- the best torch song of the last 15 years is very well done -- very often good singers over sing that song. Loretta reigns it in with very effective results.

I don't normally log on to review a record, but I just wanted to let whoever finds his or her self on this page to know that you will very much enjoy this purchase. And Loretta, if you read this, you need to get yourself on a label that can throw some muscle behind what you are doing -- I wish you the best. UNKNOWN - posted on Internet review site
