has more talent, evident in all her work with the possible exception of her most recent major cash grab effort (but I haven't heard the full CD so perhaps there's good stuff on it as well).As far as BH goes her her talent was informed by working with and adopting aspects of some of Jazz's greatest instrumentalist. This shows big time in her work.
With the AW CD (which I addmittedly auditioned under less then perfect conditions) I suspect a lot of the appeal has to do with the obvious pathos, if not blatant sentimentality, related to [glorification of] the rock star death wish fantasy.
In any case with BH there is a huge body of work backing her well deserved reputation, which has also stood the test of time. From that perspective the comparison is premature (at best).
BTW as far as the voice goes I was immediately reminded of Christie Hyde.
Everything matters, don't forget to tweak your placebos!
