I think she easily had the best voice box: she's a real soul belter.
But I find myself having next to no interest in listening to her when I line her up with my favorite Fleetwood Mac vocalists: Peter Green, Danny Kirwan, Dave Walker, Chris McVie, Stevie Nicks, Rick Vito.
Give me Rick doing a genuinely moving & believable "I Loved Another Woman" any day over a florid, overdramatic, affected Bekka Bramlett rendition of "Shakin' the Cage" or "Say You Love Me."
I haven't heard Bekka in many years. Maybe she has matured a bunch, & learned to tone it down -- learned the aesthetic value of understatement.
