We had a lovely review in the Sunday Times today

Hard to believe that Dory Previn was 86 when she died earlier this year: some of us still think of her as a curly-permed 1970s singer-songwriter.

Our own Kate Dimbleby — a free spirit who dabbles in every shade of jazz, blues and pop — revisits her legacy against the backdrop of Naadia Sheriff’s understated piano.

Her ultra-intelligent choices range from 20 Mile Zone, a droll portrait of a woman on the edge, to the almost painfully vulnerable The Lady with the Braid. Dimbleby is a terrific interpreter of female nonconformists — her stage portrait of Peggy Lee was a cult hit.

If her Dory P is quieter, it is no less atmospheric.

It’s only 2 weeks since I sent a pre-release copy of my new CD to her devoted and wonderfully supportive husband Joby Baker, and only a few days since he received it with generous praise.

Of course it is always a shock to hear that someone has died, no matter how old they are or how ill they have been but in Dory’s case, it is especially so.

I have spent the past year totally immersed in her autobiographies and songs and have been moved at how very alive her voice still feels, 40 years on from the release of “Mythical Kings and Iguanas”. I guess a part of me still hoped I might meet her. But sadly for me and the rest of the world, Dory has left.

Her wonderful music and words very much live on not just for her fans but for every new listener who hears them. I urge anyone who hasn’t already to go out and buy her albums. What an extraordinary and unique woman.
