Review by Teresa Paradise

Odetta Sings is a soul-stirring album that showcases the incredible vocal talent of Odetta. Released in 1960, it features a collection of traditional folk songs that are delivered with raw emotion and power.

The album opens with "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands," a classic gospel tune that sets the tone for the rest of the record. Odetta's voice is deep and rich, and she infuses each song with a sense of urgency and authenticity.

One of the standout tracks is "John Henry," a song about a legendary African American folk hero. Odetta's rendition is haunting and beautiful, and it highlights her ability to convey the pain and struggle of the working class.

Another highlight is "Deep River," a spiritual that showcases Odetta's range and versatility. Her voice is both delicate and powerful, and she effortlessly navigates the song's complex melodies.
