I started a quest to find terrific blues music and incredible musicianship when I was just a little kid. I also have a tremendous appreciation of fine musical instruments and equipment. One of my greatest joys all of my life was sharing my finds with my friends. I'm now publishing my journey. I hope that you come along!

Lady A - Satisfyin' - New Release Review

I just had the opportunity  to review the most recent release, Satisfyin', from Lady A (The REAL Lady A) and it's cool funky and real. Opening with Whatever (You Do), an upbeat driving shuffle, Lady A is on top of the beat with her rich vocal, backed by John Oliver III on backing vocal and drums, Herman Brown on guitar, Paul Richardson on keys. High stepper, Miss Beula Mae has a great rumbling bass line by Oliver, drums and keys by Paul Richardson. When you listen to A it's an experience. You don't feel like you are listening to the radio but to a real person singing about her own stuff. Great! One of my favorite tracks on the release is Big Momma, with it's swagger. This track is all Lady A with no sugar coating. I love it! Wrapping the release is soul track, Heaven Help Us, a solid ballad that really shows off Lady A's rich lead vocal work. With backing vocals by Lady A and Roz Royster McCommon and cool key work by Oliver, this is a great closer for a strong release.

Lady A - Doin' Fine - New Release Review

I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Doin' Fine, from Lady A and I really like it. Opening with title track, Doin' Fine, Lady A gets things moving with a strong R&B track led by her own solid vocals and backed by Joey Robinson on piano, Dexter Allen on bass and guitar, and Joey Robinson on drums. Slowing things down just a little and with attitude, The Ride has a solid strut and cool funk. Very nice. One of my absolute favorites is Change The World, a powerful soul/gospel fused track. Lady A's vocals are ultra soulful and the backing vocals joined by Dexter Allen give this track that extra oomph. Excellent! That Man has a powerful Al Green like strut. A's vocals are nicely phrased and Allen's guitar work is tight. Throw Down is ultra funky with definite roots to George Clinton and James Brown. Allen lays down some real nice bass lines with Christopher Minter on drums and Joey Robinson on piano. Wrapping the release is soulful ballad, Glad To Know You, with an easy sway. With it's solid melody and vocals and easy musical backing, this is the radio track for the release.
