    Regina Belle

    Any fans of Regina Belle? Wonderful wonderful voice. Here are a couple of my favorites. The first one is a live version of "Sista/ If I could" in a tribute to the great Nancy Wilson. Her voice on "If I could" is spot on. Love that song. The other is "Make it like it was".

    Baby Come to Me is another good one. She also did a fine cover of Donnie Hathaway’s Someday We’ll All be Free on her 1989 album Stay With Me.

    Hi!

    Blue Lovett of the Manhattans was the first one to record her, see
    http://www.soulexpress.net/manhattans_part4.htm

    ...midway through, under the heading "Blue Records"
    and still more a bit further on.

    Best regards

    Regina Belle is one of the most overlooked singers in American R&B and popular music. No, she doesn't have the range
    of Aretha or Patti but she does have that gorgeous delicious tone which can suit just about any genre. I wish she got
    more airplay and discussion today. Though i don't listen much to commercial radio these days I have to commend WBLS
    in New York for continuing to play her music and supporting her. Her remake of the Main Ingredient's classic has long
    been one of my favorites...
