I was kind of disappointed when she turned more to gospel and blues. As a soul singer she was as good as any.
Yes she was Ollie. She was wonderful live. She is a deeply religious lady and i guess it was somewhat inevitable she would go down the gospel route. However her output of secular recordings is quite extensive, and even as recently as the 90's she was still recording some secular music.
She is a truly lovely lady whom i keep in touch on a regular basis though i have not seen her in many years. Incidentally she is a big admirer of Diana whom she said helped pave the way for many other artists who would otherwise not have been given their opportunity.
