Peter Karp & Sue Foley “He Said, She Said” (Blind Pig, 2010)
Reviewed by Abu Ramses – All Tracks FCC CLEAN

Singer/songwriters Peter Karp and Sue Foley sing duets and solos. Great lyrics, which can actually be understood, based on an intimate correspondence between them while touring on the road apart. Foley brings a background as a blues guitarist. An eclectic style combining American roots, folk, blues, love ballads, & rock. A fine album!
