"The past few years really haven't brought much in the way of newer artists for the music industry that sound just simply fresh and soulful. What I like about Corrine Bailey Rae is her simplicity and tone with her music. It just feels beautiful and elequent with each tone on her breakout single, Put Your Records On, the second track from her debut album. The song is a delight to listen to. I like this song a whole lot because it isn't overconjured and it just is a great down to Earth song. I just really am expecting much more from this promising voice down the road. She sounds delightful.
Song: B+"
Definitely a MUST BUY

"Corinne Bailey Rae reminds of the first time I heard the names Gabriella Anders and Nora Jones. It's as if I've been waiting for this album for years. Her silky, soulful, innocent voice takes us back to a time when music was expected to be enjoyed. Thank you Lady, for such beautiful music. Where the heck have you been hiding?"
Corinne is refreshingly talented

"in a world where many famous singers don't actually have much talent, Corinne Bailey Rae is a lovely addition to the music scene with her beautiful, unique and warm voice. It is so relaxing to listen to, and very carefree. This album is perfect for summer!"
Great Soulful Singing

"As many haved explained, Ms. Rae has a supremely soulful and raw voice. It's really good stuff (especially if it's snowing and you've got a good book). Notice that reviewer, 'thayes' has rated almost all other CDs with horrible ratings. Mr. thayes seems like someone who missed the talent train and may be a bit bitter. It's pretty great stuff. I'd go for Corinne. If it means anything, she is a popular artist on the Barns and Noble speakers."
A New Star to Look Out For

"Corinne Bailey Rae is a rising star who I predict will go very far. Her sultry bluesy voice is extraordinary. Put Your Records On is an upbeat carefree type of song that sounds better each time I hear it."
