In black and white images, gripping her guitar, ODETTA's voice takes us on a journey back in time. Somewhere between folk and blues, the songs follow one another with a regularity and a soothing calmness. Her story can be heard in the timbre of her voice. Her transition to opera and musicals in the 1940s seems to convey itself through the almost lyrical vocal flights she sometimes indulged in.
