	Blogcritics.org: Darlene Love and Freda Payne Live
		Darlene Love and Freda Payne are prime examples of rhythm-and-blues singers who are considerably more complex than the sound of the vintage hit singles that typecast them vocally on the nostalgia hit parade.
		Love takes a song that invites mawkish self-dramatization and tackles it head on, ripping away the mewling self-pity that traditionally accrues to its expression of fear of intimacy and replacing it with a directness that turns a confession of weakness into an assertion of strength.
		Payne's 1970 signature hit, "Band of Gold," the unstrung, dance-floor lament about a bride abandoned at her wedding, barely indicated the range of a performer who toured as a jazz singer in the mid-1960's before enjoying a short string of hits in the early 70's.
