Ever since Aimee Duffy's debut single, "Mercy," was released in February 2008, there have been plenty of comparisons between her and fellow British Blue-Eyed Soul singers Amy Winehouse and Joss Stone. But in reality, the two vocalists Duffy should be compared to aren't Amy and Joss, they're '60s Soul singers Dusty Springfield and Lulu. And Duffy's debut album, Rockferry, which was released on March 3, 2008 in the U.K. and May 13, 2008 in the U.S., is as much a tribute to their vintage style of pop-soul as Winehouse's Back to Black was a tribute to girl groups like the Shirelles and Supremes. For the full analysis, check out the complete review of Duffy's Rockferry.
