Joss Stone – The Soul Sessions

Girl, sixteen years old, goes over to the States from her native Devon. People with an ear for such things hear her sing, pick themselves up off the floor and sign her up there and then.

Joss Stone is in possession of a truly phenomenal singing voice ñ imagine a kind of young-sounding Etta James or an unsullied Janis Joplin.

‘The Soul Sessions’ is a series of cover-version demos that Joss recorded with an incredible array of classic and contemporary soul and hip-hop players (Questlove, Angie Stone, Betty Wright) and is a heart-stopping selection of soulful grooves sung by a truly gifted young woman.
