The singer has recorded delightful songs over the last decade, says reporter Aden Miles. . . . Featuring has its sweet spots but some songs are stale.
. . . Featuring is a compilation album of 18 songs. For the most part . . . Featuring is a delicious listen with a diverse lineup from Outkast to Ray Charles who is heard on Here We Go Again, a soft gospel influenced song.
The first cut on the album is The Little Willies' Love Me, and is followed by Virginia Moon with the Foo Fighters.
Though many sceptics challenged the collaboration, the artists mix their distinctive styles effectively.
The easy listening sound, while refreshing on several, follows through without let up to the final song.
Little Lou, Ugly Jack and Prophet John by Belle and Sebastian are covered.
Loretta, Take off Your Cool with Outkast and Bull Rider, and Creepin' In with Dolly Parton are also on the album.
All have one thing in common, they fail to ignite.
