...says early on, "But in the future and with the New Woman it will be." His focus is too narrow: he conceives of the New Woman rather than a New Voice, or a New Person. About the position of women in his future utopia he sounds suspiciously like Stokely Carmichael...
Husky Alto. Drawing on pop's musical past, Savannah synthesizes the sounds of yesterday-Count Basic, Hoagy Carmichael, Carmen Miranda-with its own swank brand of soul. Strains of Whispering (1920) are grafted onto Cherchez la Femme, a disco number bumping along to Mickey Sevilla's sassy drumbeat.
