Review "... the voice of the Queen of Soul is still a sensation after more than half a century." (Stereo Play, December 2014) "With Gladys Knight ('Midnight Train To Georgia'), Gloria Gaynor ('I Will Survive') and Dinah Washington ('Teach Me Tonight'), she interprets famous fellow Supremes ('You Keep Me Hangin' On'), Barbra Streisand ('People'), and Prince/Sinéad O'Connor ('Nothing Compares 2 U'), and with high profile Alicia Keys ('No One') and Adele ('Rolling In The Deep'), she shows that even at 72, she still knows her way around the contemporary pop business." (Good Times, December 2014/January 2015) "The Queen of Soul serves up covers - but what covers!" (Rolling Stone, December 2014)
