this is me telling you that if you like etta james, amy winehouse or even diana krall...adele is someone you want to hear. she's not classic, or cracked out or even experienced...she's 19 with a voice that stuns.
the ny times said "Late last year the mainstream British press hailed Adele as “the new Amy Winehouse,” a facile yet complicated bit of praise. Onstage Adele mentioned Ms. Winehouse only in passing, but right before the song that most evoked her: “Right as Rain,” a pensive and indignant breakup ditty with a shamelessly retro-soul sound"
i'm no music critic but her album 19 (which to be fair is all about love @ 19 and at times, the immaturity shows) is definitely worth checking out.
