"Her voice, bright yet sensual, soared...Bufford threw herself into each number; her exuberance and sense of humour won us over from the outset."

-Clive Davis, The Times (UK)

"The real thing: you know it when you see it…The way her voice, with its blues inflections, cut a swath, leaving nothing standing, tempts me to describe her with groveling hyperbole as an earthier, more acerbic 21st-century Barbra Streisand." -Stephen Holden, The New York Times
