Teresa James & the Rhythm Tramps – The Bottom Line Reviewed by Sadie O., 6/4/07 Terrific roadhouse blues rock covering an array of subgenres. Ms. James is a fine singer and pianist and has a dandy band. Only one sad song; the rest are seriously fun. Most lyrics are quite clever. Great stuff! No FCCs detected. I love most of the tracks – check out the stars. NB: Most tracks end 5-6 seconds early. 1. ****rolling midtempo bluesy strut. Fun lyrics about bottoming out. 2. **slow blues with nice horn section. Lyrics are suggestive in the nicest possible way. 3. **downtempo steady roller. 4. ***downtempo strut with a bit of funky soul feel. 5. **slow soul groove. 6. ****somewhat downtempo Texas-style sashay. Fun lyrics, irresistible sound. 7. ****slow Dixieland horns; swingy beat comes in after 45 seconds, more fun lyrics. The party is definitely on! 8. **gnarly harmonica intro, slow bluesy crawl. 9. ****nice grungy bassy sound, midtempo boogie shuffle. Feelgood stuff, fo sho. The slide guitar is taking no prisoners. 10. *very slow, organ-based, sad blues. A real weeper. 11. ***midtempo funky strut, positive and fun. 12. ****downtempo snaky crawl, slide gets up inside your skin. 13. ****rollicking uptempo roadhouse rocker. Yay! Damn, now I wish it was Friday… | ||
