Christine McVie
Performed here last Wednesday, at age 75 she still sounds great.
I like her better than her band-mate Stevie Nicks, because she wrote nicer songs and she's not a raspy-voiced witch.

Sleeper. Very Smiths like.

There is something really beautiful when an older artist covers their younger work. In Mitchell's case the voice is older, but richer and though life decays there is a fractured, cracked beauty.
