ITM was okay. A few songs I really liked. I dunno about the Andrews Sisters, but I have always felt like (at least as far as her solo albums go) she just didn't have the right material to work with. I heard her first album, Christine Perfect, and honestly was not that knocked out by it. I like her in a more bluesy context, but I can see why she wasn't satisfied with it. She was on the right track with the Elvis Presley cover.
CM's voice is certainly much more appealing than SN's at this point, I must say. I love Stevie's early solo stuff, but after RAL she loses me, except for The Dance.
