Rockferry by Duffy

Rockferry Reviews

60s Revisited
Fantastic album really hits the spot,as a "child of the 60s" myself I can identify with this music, buy it,you won't be disappointed.

Great debut .
If you enjoy music with a 1960's feel to it , then this is the album for you . Duffy has a voice perfectly suited to the songs on the album , despite what some of the previous reviewers have said . A great debut . If her next album is as good as this one , we are in for a treat .

Not sealed
I have bought this album for a christmas present for the mother in-law and she is now going to think i am a cheap ******* because it came unsealed with a scratch on the case. It looks used! very dissapointed by Amazon!

The most overrated album of the year...
Much has been made of this album and the singles lifted from it, particularly the now grating 'Mercy' (surely a candidate for most annoying pop single of the year). Dont get me wrong I quite liked this when I heard it for the very first time but after a being force fed it by the radio several times I suddenly realised how weak it was. Its trying too hard to be something it is not ie a classic 60's pop song, its simply a pale approximation.

How she has been compared to the legendary Dusty Springfield is one of lifes great mysteries it must surely be simply a visual thing. Otherwise its like comparing cheap wool with silk. Will she be remembered in 30 years time? I doubt it.


If you like weak retro songs with little depth or substance sung by a pretty Lulu soundalike then this id definitely for you. But if you prefer something with a little more quality stick with Amy Winehouse or seek out the many hundreds of 60's female artists that sound better than this.

Vibrato anybody?
I don't think she's got a good voice at all, she squawks lazily like a doped up duck. Why doesn't she just try singing instead of warbling? Sheer affectation.
