Pretty much liked or loved everything she released prior to the cringe worthy "9 to 5".
and "coat of many colours" is my favourite song of hers.

I have heard a couple of tracks off that new one on the radio...
They're not bad, but I wouldn't buy the album.

I sort of remember a quote of hers when she was asked during an interview if she thought she looked cheap. She retorted 'Honey, it takes a lot of money to look this cheap' Amazing to see her still going at 70!

I remember her saying something like that also Jerome...
Looks wise:, early 1970s she was okay, then the clothes got tighter, more make up got almost as bad as q geisha girl and the wigs became more extravagant...
So, what I'm saying is, I prefer to listen to her as opposed to watching her which is probably why I never saw her in concert.
