Many years ago I poked my head round the door of some Saturday morning TV. There was a band. In less than a chorus I was converted by the singer's soulful, strong, edgy voice. That was Electribe 101. Here's their classic Talking With Myself...
No sooner had I bought the CD than they vanished. It was a while before I found out the that wonderful singer, Billie Ray Martin, was still working. Here's a stone classic, Space Oasis, from her debut album Deadline For My Memories.
I love the overtones, inflections, variations, passion and colour of her voice: take some time to listen. There's an interview with her as well...
