Lee Anne Rimes.
Check this out! The Girl has some pipes!
The most underrated Country Singer (at least IMHO)

Mickey , she has fallen off the radar pretty much. I seem to remember her hitting Nashville at like 13 with a voice a grown ass woman would kill for. Then in her early 20's or something she had issues dropped out of sight and is working her way back now. Seems to be happily married too.
But Lea Anne has incredible range and really knows how to phrase lyrics. Thanks for the reminder.

The best thing about the Righteous Brothers recording was Phil Spector's knowledge of recording technology.
She has much better pipes than Righteous Brothers did together!
Go see her perform live some time if you have the opportunity and you'll understand where I'm coming from.

I think the whole home wrecker thing sort of ruined her good girl image.fatjack wrote:Mickey , she has fallen off the radar pretty much.

Actually in her teens, early teens when the whole "homewrecker" thing hit.honyock wrote: ↑Mon Dec 14, 2020 5:14 pmI think the whole home wrecker thing sort of ruined her good girl image.fatjack wrote:Mickey , she has fallen off the radar pretty much.

But that doesn't do anything to detract from her ability as a singer.

This made me think who is my generations Patsy. Closest i can think of is Linda Ronstadt, not that Emmylou's voice is bad just in my book Linda

will freely admit that I don't really know much about Country music, or likely as much as I should - but I have heard Leanne Rimes sing and she's very good indeed. Speaking of female country music singers though, one of my favorite late night youtube covers is Gretchen Wilson singing a cover of Heart's Barracuda along with Alice in Chains. Certainly an odd ( and somewhat cheezy in a guilty pleasure kind of way ) mix but she would have been a good rock singer too. This was from 2007

she is a year older than me...the affair that sort of torpedoed her career happened around '08 or '09, so she was in her mid 20's.mickey wrote: ↑Mon Dec 14, 2020 5:19 pmActually in her teens, early teens when the whole "homewrecker" thing hit.honyock wrote: ↑Mon Dec 14, 2020 5:14 pmI think the whole home wrecker thing sort of ruined her good girl image.fatjack wrote:Mickey , she has fallen off the radar pretty much.
