Joan Armatrading...She had gone completely out of my mind until I was in the car the other day and they played Willow. I loved it

Amazing voice. Never heard of her so googled her to find out she dueted with Jagger on my favourite Stones track

 

 

Her first couple of solo albums are class, the record company didn't support her enough unfortunately.

She, among others that you have heard but probably not aware of their names, features in the '20 Feet from Stardom' documentary I mentioned above. It's an absolute corker.

 

Must check that out, cheers mate.  Out of rep

Aside from her various hits, Riperton is perhaps best remembered today for her ability to sing in the whistle register, in which she had rare facility. Riperton possessed a five-octave vocal range (the liner notes to her Petals legacy album ascribe five-and-a-half octaves to her)

 

RIP Minnie.
