I've had a chance to listen to both Joss Stone albums and, believe me, that's enough. I wholeheartedly agree with the reviewer that said Joss has "absolutely no range at all...she sings in the same style for all of her songs." Melody takes a vacation and all Joss does is declaim soufully--over and over again. She truly can't carry a tune in a bucket. If you want to hear how "The Chokin' Kind" should sound, listen to the original Joe Simon version. The same with Betty Wright's "Dirty Man." These are great songs and Joss does a terrible job with both of them. Only rock illiteratti would praise Joss's remarkably failed covers. Or has everbody started taking crazy pills?
