My summer vacation really took the ol' music bloggin' wind outta my sails. Sorry to have not replied to this post earlier, because this was a good introduction to Adele, who I had only heard of in passing. This voice is amazing. "Right As Rain" is absolutely killer. And you're right: "Dusty Springfield" was the first thing that popped into my head. I guess that may have something to do with the swingin' sixties vibe of this song, though. But what's up with the orchestral bridge in "Tired"? She lost me there. Thanks for the heads up on Adele, buddy. Gonna have to pick this album up. Aaaaaaaaand I’m back!

The album also contains a cover of one of my favorite later-years Bob Dylan songs. I wanted to devote the post to her originals, but give it a listen <a href="http://hypem.com/track/545842/Adele-Make+You+Feel+My+Love" rel="nofollow">here</a>. P.S.
