Publisher's Synopsis
Songbirds is a book for lovers of the female singing voice. It is a platform that allows readers to agree or disagree with the author's selections, which
makes it a fun read.
From the Motown sound to country to folk, pop and jazz, Songbirds features singers from all eras and styles.
From Janis Joplin's sizzling vocals to Aretha Franklin's Motown renderings to wildly successful, performers such as Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, Whitney Houston and Linda Ronstadt, the career of each singer is examined in great detail, beginning with their earliest musical meanderings all the way to ultimate success.
Also included is the Best of the Rest, those performers who barely missed the cut.
