Press Reviews:
"For me, the litmus test would come during Great Gig in the Sky.
The disembodied female voice, originally recorded by Clare Torry,
could make or break the whole concert in my books, Happily,
Carol Kenyon, a british singer who's backed both Waters and Pink Floyd
on separate tours, pretty much nailed the phrasing, breathing and tone,
to many rounds of applause. WOW".

flawless execution of the album really sent me there! One of the lady singers

high-pitched notes with real emotion [Grace Slick - take a bow] prompting
thunderous applause from the enrapt audience! This was as good as it gets!"
