3rd album from englishborn, now resident of the USA, living in Detroit, 26 year old rock guitarrist and singer Joanne Shaw Taylor. Her music is mostly connected with blues but there sure ain't much blues here, that's for sure. Her singing does not appeal to me, it sounds strained and not with much feeling. Maybe it matures with age? The songs are pretty boring, not much happenes and not much of nice melodies here. She needs some soulful singers to back her up, that would lift this album a bit. Her guitarplaying is very chaotic, I don't understand why she plays in such a messy way in her solos. I immediately skip to the next song when she begins playing that way.

No, I don't recommend this album. It was the same when I saw her live here at the local music-pub in Gävle, I lost interest after a while.
