Rita Coolidge...

Back in the day I heard a song called "You" and I was captured.
It was something about her voice...almost like a cross between Linda Ronstadt and Anne Murray.
Well I found "The Best Of Rita Coolidge" on Amazon.com the other day and as I listened to it, I was surprised at the hits I didn't fully realize was by her.
Songs like a cover of Jackie Wilson's hit, "Your Love Is Lifting Me Higher", "All-Time High", a Tempations cover, "The Way You Do The Things You Do", and the lilting "We're All Alone."
She is married to the great song writer Kris Kristofferson and he contributed on several of her hits.
Good stuff and I only paid $2.66 for it...
