Hardest Of Times - Claudette

Describe it in 20 words An album of ballads, traditional hymns in a gospel style, and new songs of inspiration from gospel diva, Claudette.
Big Themes/Standout Tracks "Hardest of Times" stands out as a funky, soulful number, but the bulk of the album is mellow, traditional gospel, belted out by Claudette's powerful voice.
Anything that lets it down Sometimes Claudette belts the songs out too much. To my ears her voice can be a little too powerful, with strategic key changes and gut-wrenching high notes making me want to reach for the volume control.
Who it sounds like Imagine a gospel choir album, but without the choir (such as something produced by the London Community Gospel Choir). Sandra Crouch. The Winans.
