Title: White-Girl Soul
Review: Joss Stone is 16, and one of my unwritten rules is to go easy on kids. This British teen can sing, no question, and her voice is rich and husky. Her heart also seems in the right place; you have to admire someone willing to belt out little known 70's soul numbers. The problem, though: oversinging--the white soul singer's burden--plagues this CD through and through. It's never a good sign when the listener secretly wishes for one of the backup singers to hijack the whole project.For more reviews, visit http://unpaidrockcritic.typepad.com
