Search - Corinne Bailey Rae :: Bailey Rae, Corinne

Japanese edition of Rae's outstanding debut, augmented by the bonus track "Another Rainly Day". She was voted by BBC subscribers as the one artist to watch in 2006. From the first notes sung on her ?Like A Star? EP, Rae presented a slice of sublime Billie Holiday blues delivered with a voice that pins you (in the softest but most persuasive of ways) to the wall; a voice that floats effortlessly, full of caress, subtlety and the very purest quality. It is a wonderful discovery to treasure, but it belongs to a young woman not from somewhere musically exotic - say, Mississippi or even Manhattan - but just east of the M1: Leeds. Her name is Corinne Bailey Rae, and she was born to do this.
