Frogman - re the Jackie Venson, her guitar playing is very good...electric and acoustic + she has great (and, to my ear, unique) tone. Her band is tight and the recording SQ is excellent (listened to the studio version of Love Transcends). The songs are good...some are strong. Agree with Rok, however...her voice, while good, ain’t the best for the blues. A little too white if I’m allowed to say such these days. There’s a place for superb diction. The blues ain’t that place. Anyway, thanks for the recommendation. I expect I will be listening to it again.
The Good Stuff
There are simply two kinds of music, good music and the other kind ... the only yardstick by which the result should be judged is simply that of how it sounds. If it sounds good it's successful; if it doesn't it has failed. -- Duke Ellington
This purpose of this thread is to provide a place to post outstanding examples of the Good Music.

My CD has a different cover art, but it is the same album.

Female singers singing the Blues. The first one was actually posted by The Frogman on JFA. So I know he knows the real thing when he hears it. Sometimes he just wants to, as Acman3 would say, start a ruckus. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=debDGhfzz-c The ultimate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzLQKLGrC78 Cheers |
