Synopsis

Album Description
Between Carla Olson's direct vocals, Mick Taylor's searing guitar work, and the star-studded guests, it's hard to avoid playing this one over and over again! Olson's list of achievements is nothing short of impressive. She came on the scene in the early '80s as a member of the Textones, a band that also included future Go-Go Kathy Valentine. She went on to record numerous solo albums. Here, Mick Taylor's blues-based riffery lifts the record from great to fantastic, and his presence gives the album an energetic, live-in-the studio feeling.

CD Reviews

Excellent retrospective
Mr. Lee | Humboldt County, CA | 06/28/2010
(5 out of 5 stars)

"The sampling of songs on this compilation is much more satisfying than on many other compilation records that I have of other musicians. Carla Olson comes out sounding like the most deserving female singer musician for greater recognition."
A GREAT COLLECTION

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The combination of Carla Olson & Mick Taylor is perfect! Carla seems to be what Mick lost when he left the Stones; he sounds as fresh, and lyrical as anything he did with KEEF /MICK ! And Carla is in rare form,too !!She obviously loves this material-you hear it in every song.The reviewer -'snoopy'- needs to open his ears: these recordings are superior to their earlier releases."
Unissued tracks ?

"Why don't write that this is an anthology of tracks available on other Carla CD as "Within an Ace" or "Midnight Mission" ?

Unuseful CD !"
