Wow. I’d heard a lot about Cassidy, and had heard bits of her songs occasionally, so I picked up the album **Songbird** over the weekend. All I can say is…wow. What a voice. Her style and her interpretations of the songs were beautiful. I’ll definitely pick up the other albums too.

It’s just a damn shame she died so young.
