It was the birthplace of the Industrial revolution, consequently there were many chimneys from foundries and factories polluting the atmosphere…causing discolouration of buildings. Also coal mining was prevalent in the Birmingham area both underground and open cast…. Hence the name Black country Obviously both are now part of history but the name stuck. (Though I prefer your description) |

But Christine has a rounder more mellow voice. I have a soft spot for Spencer Davis… I won a little dancing competition at a local dance hall. And the prize was a three of their singles .. |

Oh, wow...talk about some names from the past. Mary Anne was super sweet. I thought of her when Christine passed and wondered if she would post here around that time.
On another note, I always thought Christine sounded similar to Barbra Streisand, minus the vibrato (if that makes any sense). |

One of the reasons I loved Christine's voice so much is no one else ever reminded me of her. Ever. Other singers have similar ranges, of course, but there's a quality to her voice that was hers alone. Not being a musician or singer I don't know the vocabulary for it, but I know what I mean.

I still wonder how much of a driving force Mike Vernon was in making Christine a front woman, considering she had three of Chicken Shack’s first four singles when it was Stan’s band.

I was in the car singing along to Say You Love Me in my best Christine voice and I suddenly realized I was sounding like Cher, so there might be something to this theory after all.
