I've never quite understood why Mandy Barnett didn't become a huge star, especially after her amazing sophomore release
I've Got a Right to Cry, but, as Mae West famously declaimed, goodness had nothing to do with it. Now I must confess, I stopped following her career in the late 2000s (as she seemed to have stopped recording) a while and only recently had the pleasure to listen to her dandy 2013 collection of Don Gibson Covers,
I Can't Stop Loving You. And after listening to last year's Billie Holiday homage,
Every Star Above, I decided a Mandy Barnett retrospective was long overdue. As for the title of the collection, I forget who described her that way and I think they may have characterized as a once in a generation voice. At any rate, hope folks like it (though I can't imagine anyone wouldn't. :)

What a spectacular voice. Thanks so much. Could I possibly trouble you for a re-up of the link. I can only download some of the tracks. Thanks again.
