Sounds Like: " I've heard Kristine many times live, whether
with Tony Allen, The Backstabbers, or
her sister, I know of no other singer that puts
her body, her soul and her voice into a song
like Kristine. Watching her face as
she interprets a song makes me smile.
Molly O'Day, Kitty Wells and Wilma Lee Cooper
lurk within her no doubt."
