(03/12/10) The casual setting of this one-day live session produced an uncompromisingly fiery album, here happily augmented by three bonus tracks. Washington rips, roars, and caresses her material, sometimes all at once, while leaving plenty of room for the likes of Clifford Brown, Clark Terry, and Max Roach to shine. The highlight is a "You Go to My Head" that's the very definition of the phrase "a summer with a thousand Julys." --Rickey WrightSee less

(01/16/10) 2008 album from the Dublin-born artist. fast becoming one of the finest vocalists currently emerging out of the UK roots music scene. Inspired by such Jazz greats as Billy Holiday, Dinah Washington, and the undisputed queen of Rockabilly, Wanda Jackson, Imelda is forging a contemporary sound all of her own. With a nod to the glory days of old but with her heart and soul very much in the present, this rockin' little minx belts them out with all the musical force of a veteran Rockabilly wildcat! 12 tracks.See less

(01/05/10) Question : Why should you buy an album of other people's songs by a relatively obscure bloke with a guitar ? Answer : Well you might not but I did and I shall spend the next few minutes trying to persuade you to give him a try too. The 2005 recording 'Micah P. Hinson and The Gospel Of Progress' was a stunning debut. Edgy, idiosyncratic and chock-full of strange, elusive magic. 2008's 'M.P.H. and The Red Empire Orchestra' fleshed out his singular vision still further. 'Tell Me It Ain't So' from the latter is a composition of near visionary intensity. 'All Dressed Up and Smelling Of Strangers' is a different kettle of carp entirely. The sixteen stripped-down covers on this new collection find Mr Hinson confronting both his angels and more than a few of his demons. This is NOT easy listening by any measure known to man but give it a chance to get under your skin and the rewards may well justify the effort expended. Sinatra's 'My Way' is simultaneously crucified and resurrected. Mr...See less
