Review: Duffy - Rockferry
By RJ (SoundScoop)(385)  
Artist : Duffy
Song : Rockferry
Label : Polydor
Release Date : 19th November 2007 (out now on itunes...UK only)
Rating: 5/5
Review:
Think Dusty Springfield meets Fiona Apple meets Amy Winehouse. You end up with Duffy. A welsh soul singer-songwriter. The 24 year old was voted second in the annual BBC 6 Music poll: Sound of 2008 (acts tipped to hit the big time). Her debut single "Rockferry" is a 60's throwback mixed with contemporary soul. It demonstrates her as a character with plenty of strong attitude. Duffy's voice is gorgeous, you believe in every word she says, probably because every word is sung straight from her blues filled heart. This track is perfect for all seasons and all emotions. It wouldn't look out of place in 1968 and it certainly doesn't look out place in 2008. This early example of Duffy makes Kate Nash and Lily Allen look like novelty acts. A potential legend? Time will tell...
