My Soapbox column from

BASS PLAYER magazine

 

 

My dear friend and favorite singer,
Vaneese Thomas
returns with a CD of R&B classics.


Aerosmith's Steven Tyler bows when he greets her. Aretha Franklin rarely sings without her. She has performed with the greatest artists of our age, from Sting to Luciano Pavarotti. "She" is VT, Vaneese Thomas, owner of one of the great voices of the western world and Soul Sister of the first rank. Part of a musical Royal Family that includes her father, the late, great R&B pioneer Rufus Thomas, and chart-topping older sister Carla Thomas, represented on this album by her 1966 hit, "Comfort Me", Vaneese has brought her virtuoso vocal stylings to hundreds of recordings.
