I saw this post and didn't know who Linda Lewis was, so I started to look into her career. From what I've read and the few audio samples I've found, I'm interested in this. One of her first albums, Lark, is available on the Collector's Choice label, and I was very impressed with the clips I listened to on Amazon. Soul, r&b, folk, pop, and rock influences, and a really great voice. Thanks for posting, pghmusiclover.
