Synopsis

Amazon.com
Unplugged, but electrifying nonetheless, Canada-based blueswoman Sue Foley's first live disc was recorded in one take with a band that hadn't rehearsed the set. Yet, instead of a sloppy, slapdash show, she delivers her most inspired and undoubtedly most intimate album to date. With a sparse three-piece band nimbly following along, Foley digs into personal blues favorites, dusty obscurities, new songs, and even a George Harrison cover. Delta blues, Piedmont-style fingerpicking, boogie-woogie, folk, and even jazz mesh in a set that easily shifts from shyly sensitive to sadly ruminative to unabashedly sexy. Foley's quivering, almost childlike voice perfectly juxtaposes these emotions as she sings with loose-limbed confidence, helping to create an uninhibited feel that jumps out of the grooves. --Hal Horowitz

Excellent
J. MACLEAN | Canada | 01/29/2005

"I have all of Sue's albums. The first one I heard that hooked me was Love Coming Down. My clear cut favorite is Back To The Blues. This new one is great and is probably already 2nd favorite. It is very impressive for a live album, the sound is fantastic. I am a fan of her guitar work and this album has it, although not enough. Her voice has a brat quality and is as sexy as ever."

"I really liked Sue's old style, raspy blues style on this album. It is the first one I have heard from her but she is up there with the greats: Bonnie Raitt, Etta James, with a little Emmylou Harris mixed in."
Satisfying!

"This is my first Sue Foley album. I ran across it at a bookstore that allows you to listen to samples from the tracks.



Unfortunately, that store makes it such a pain to actually buy a CD that I ended up being forced to wait a few days to receive it in the mail from Amazon.



Well worth the wait. I'm a big fan of live CDs, I always feel like you get a better feel for the energy and excitement that makes an artist gain a folloowing and this CD proves that out.



Very satisfying live performance blues."
