I'll skip past some of the more analytical posts and add a remark on her musical skills--I was searching for the Larry King stuff last night and see that CNN has also posted the audio of her "Cry Me A River."

She may not be Julie London, Joe, but her voice in places reminded me of Shirley Bassey.

"MOR" or popular culture--the elephant in the room on a folk site? A lot of people make a darned good living in that cultural venue. Some of them stray into specialty recordings when they get a chance.
