Reviewed by BravoMarco

Accomplished all round performers Sunny War & Chris Pierce, together with Jared Faber team up on this release. Soulful blues, with that extra bite. Singers compliment each other so well. Duets all tracks.
Like: Jessica Hernandez, Jolie Holland with a bit of Tom Waits, Joe Cocker thrown in.

1) I Don’t Know Where I’m Going (3.55) Slower paced duet – Oozing elegance.
2) Search And Destroy (4.12) Stripped down leisurely cover, moves up a gear towards the end. Still has plenty raw power.
3) I Lived To Tell About It (4.30) Folky tale with a country quality.
4) It’s All Over Now (3.36) Standard mid paced ballad.
5) I’m Through With You (4.10) Nice opening (which continues) Middle of the road R&B.
6) Any Day Now (5.31) Happy light gospel. (Finishes at 4.32 / 4.52 resumes with a hand clapping finale)
