Actually, I was not very impressed with what I heard. At least nothing
justifying all the hype. Still, it is very 'nice': Nice production,
beautiful voice, but it definitely lacks that extra edge that that kind of
soul music deserves.

"It is hard to hide a deeply ingrained bias. But Ph.D.s can be sneaky
about this, because they like to hedge. If there's a single problem with
the overeducated (or if I had to put my finger on just one. . .), it's
that we hate being wrong. As an academic, [...]--what you don't make in
dollars, you make up for in intellectual authority. Equivocation is the
survival mechanism of the trained intellectual."
