^ I must admit that when I saw the date and country of origin, I didn't expect much of your Harumi track, but I was pleasantly surprised. Thanks for introducing me to someone new. But spoken word for 24 minutes!
That's pushing the envelope, but not in a good way.
Neapolitan's Oogum Boogum track was an interesting curiosity; great voice, and a nice line about "her brother's sloppy shirt", because it illustrates something many of us have noticed; that a beautiful woman can make the most unpromising clothes sexy.
Another famously good voice is Stevie Winwood's. This atmospheric track is from Traffic's self-titled 1968 album. Overall, the psychedelic lyrics on this album are nicely counterbalanced by natural, live-in-the-studio musicianship.
( TBH, though, I'm only listening to this so that I have something to add to the thread - but that still counts, doesn't it? )
