Strong collection of various blues styles. Various artists covering some classic blues tunes. Mostly female vocals. Lots of harmonica and piano. Solid. No FCC’s.

*My Favorites*: All.

1. (3:31) Mid. Upbeat, piano stroll, plodding beat, harmonica.
2. (3:23) Mid. Rapid-fire guitar licks, harmonica breaks, steady rollin’ beat.
3. (4:15) Mid. Soulful vocal delivery, mournful and moving.
4. (2:31) Mid. Upbeat, driving with nice guitar work, great singing.
5. (4:04) Slow / Mid. Down-tempo, killer bass and piano, guitar. Strong female vocal.
6. (3:26) Mid / Fast. Driving r’n’r blues number. Strong beat, nice piano, guitar.
