I JUST discovered this Australian songstress, what an amazing voice she has!!! Any of you heard of her, and like her?

I bought her Ooh Child album back in 1979. A quirky album, well known session musicians and oddly spotlighted Robie Porter and Mona Lisa Young - but it worked well. Some mainstream songs in the Donna Summer mode, but also songs by Frederick Knight and Charles Chuck Jackson [[See my post today on The Independents and you'l see Chuck Jackson performing his own version of Ooh Child. She's very talented and has had a very successful career - still releasing material... Australia's foremost soul singer...

Wow! Jill, I’ve never heard of Marcia Hines, but I like her – a lot! Her voice on "I Just Don’t Know What To Do With Myself" reminds me of P.P. Arnold’s vocals on her recording of "I Go To Pieces Every Time". [[YouTube Video courtesy of Ian Levine)

I just discovered that Marcia has an array of albums available on Amazon [[U.S.) I wonder how she has remained such a secret all this time?

Thanks for the heads up. I just might have to place an order of Marcia Hines CD’s myself! - Gary
