BORING...BORING! GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT

It is not enough to count on your fame to cash on your CD. True, celebrity status sells records. But, quality is to be preserved, originality to metamorphose and warmth to emanate from your songs. Unfortunately, it did NOT happen for many recording artists this year. Among those singers who bored me to death are Ann Hampton Callaway, especially when she sings  "Let the Saints Come Marching". Her CD "Who Can See The Blue The Same Again?" is a great disappointment, keep it on the dusty shelves.

Marcovicci failed to maintain her vocal quality in her last 2 released CDs. What happened to this diva? I wish Marcovicci would go back and listen to her "Live From London". That CD was monumental.

Photo: "Live From London" by Andrea Marcovicci was stunning and monumental. But what is happening to Marcovicci's talent now? She just lost it.

In addition to her failure in delivering the quality expected from a grande dame of the American cabaret, Marcovicci adopted this nonchalant attitude "laisser aller". This could and would explain the reason why her appearances schedule is getting minimal. CONTINUES NEXT
