Sandy Denny sounded very similar at times. Similar timber, although a big more range and a bit more power, but she started out as a vocalist whereas Christine sort of happened into it.

I still wonder how much of a driving force Mike Vernon was in making Christine a front woman, considering she had three of Chicken Shack’s first four singles when it was Stan’s band.
