You’ll hear a hint of Dolly Parton’s voice in Lindi Ortega’s singing and that’s a Good Thing. I enjoyed this CD full of love songs. It’s been years since I’ve heard a cover of the Bee Gee’s “To Love Someone” but Lindi Ortega gives the song a nice spin. She has an edge, too. Just listen to “I Ain’t The Girl.” I can’t wait to hear Lindi Ortega’s next album! GRADE: B+

Nice song. I can definitely see the resemblance to Dolly.
Jeff, it’s been a while since I’ve heard such a good album from an emerging artist.
Okay, I’m streaming the album now. Good stuff. Thanks for the tip.
Bill, I’m sure you’ll enjoy FADED GLORYFILLE. Lindi Ortega is a talented singer. I want to hear more of her songs in the future.
Good singer but this is a good example of what I don’t like about modern songs. Songs used to be poems, now they’re essays.
