  • Compilation of songs in which Martha Wash shows her beautiful head voice (in chronological order of the albums).
    As Whitney Houston said, Martha has a "gigantic, fabulous, tremendous, rock kick-an'ass voice". But she also has one of the most beautiful head voices. She used to easily sing in F5-C6 range, sometimes higher.
    I hope she'll continue to show us some more in her upcoming solo album (scheduled for 2019).

    She is and always will be a soprano. She's just older now, so it's obvious that her head voice and belting register is not going to be as was in her prime. Still, that's a very beautiful and complex head voice. Capable of runs and coloratura. Amazing!

    Martha is always a first choice. She knows her shit. Dang Martha can get it, I’m writing this as I’m listening. She can sure uplift that voice. Love you always Martha. ♥️

      I guess because her range has getting smaller with age… or even if she still can, it must be harder for her to reach high notes.

      I don’t really know that. None of the 3 LPs of SF Polytechnic high school choir that I have mention a year of release. I guess Martha was between 14 and 18yo.
      But the San Francisco Inspirationnal choir LP was released in 1974.
