I meant to comment on this awhile ago but I got a bit distracted by some of the foolishness that has been going on lately.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to hearing this; interesting I'm sure it will be in the least. Mavis is one of the few real troopers
we have left...

The cd is very good. Not a dud track on it.

Can't say I like EVERY track but it is a very worthy effort [[& Mavis is in fine vocal form).
My early faves are "Losing You" & the old soul anthem "We're Gonna Make It".
She obviously had some say in the songs that were tackled as there are quite a few gospel numbers on it.
