Beautiful voice, emotionally suggestive

"This is the first Gloria Lynne album I acquired, and I was quite surprised. I'd been a serious Sarah Vaughan fan for some time, and was immediately struck by the fact that Gloria has a richness to her voice reminiscent of Sarah, but with an emotional charge that Sarah does not have. This is not to suggest that they sound alike, or that one is better than the other, although I've come to consider Gloria the equal of Sarah, though Sarah knew much greater fame. However, what I like about this Lynne album, and the others I've listened to is her emotional, slow, and faintly soulful take on songs. Also, there is a certain doubt in her voice too that I enjoy, a doubt in her abilities perhaps, or a doubt in the worth of life."
