There is no doubt that women with soulful voices are amazingly talented and, with so many of them around at the moment, it's awesome to see an album dedicated to them.

Lady Got Soul is a compilation of heartfelt tracks by women with soul, for women with soul. And if you're going to make an album like this, obvious must-haves are Amy Winehouse and Adele.



But it's not just the newbies on this album, the old-school legends are also included. With a track list that includes Winehouse's Valerie, Adele's Make You Feel My Love, Aretha Franklin's A Natural Woman, Dusty Springfield's Son of a Preacher Man, Etta James' At Last, Alicia Keys' No One and Sade's Soldier of Love, Lady Got Soul is a really good album to have in your collection.

This collection of 20 tracks conveys the power, strength and vulnerability of women.

It features a selection of classics by women who express themselves with their heart and soul.

The album is cool, classy, classic and contemporary.

Other artists who feature on this album are Duffy, Florence + The Machine, Gin Wigmore, Lana Del Rey, Erykah Badu, India Arie, Estelle, Ladi6, Nina Simone and more.

The only thing I would change about this album is the song choice of some of the artists.
