My wonderful blog buddy, Tosh Fomby who blogs at Totsy Mae, introduced me to this singer, Maysa Leak. I’d never heard about her

before but right away, I felt like I ‘knew’ her. She reminds me of someone else, though I can’t remember who. It’ll come back to me when I’m not trying so hard.
Mayas was born in 1966 in Baltimore, Maryland. She’s been a lead singer for the British jazz/funk/R&B band, Incognito, and counts Chaka Khan as an inspiration.
Besides her work with Incognito, she has several solo albums to her credit.
Here’s her interpretation of All I Do.
Enjoy!
I like this one,another one to add to the playlist!
She used to sing with one of your groups – Incognito.
Nice, Marcia. I don’t think I’d heard this rendition of Stevie’s song by Maysa. Thanks 🙂
You’re welcome, Totsy. Listening to her now.
Thanks for turning me on to her.
