Baker's Dozen

Artists discuss the 13 records that shaped their lives

11. Karen DaltonIn My Own Time

She’s one of the finest female vocalists of her time. It was probably in the early 80s that I started listening to her. There’s a timbre to her vocal that you just don’t hear in other vocalists. Also, her timing is so much her own. Very different from the timings of other vocalists. She has a whole rhythm to what she does that is very refreshing and very original.
