Title: The soulful divas
First published: 1999
Description: "In The Soulful Divas, David Nathan profiles the greatest female rhythm and blues vocalists of the past three decades as never before. He celebrates these outstanding artists in fascinating, unsanitized, behind-the-scenes portraits. All of the profiles are based on the author's long-standing, personal relationships with the women featured, and are an outgrowth of both his in-person interview sessions and informal chats.

The result is an entertaining, candid look at the ups and downs of each performer's career, as well as how these African-American women have wielded power in a basically white, male-dominated industry."--BOOK JACKET.
