IF YOU HAD ANY DOUBTS AS TO WHY FIONA BOYES IS CREDITED WITH BEING THE BEST FEMALE BLUES ARTIST IN AUSTRALIA THEN YOU MUST HAVE A LISTEN TO THIS SUPERB U.S. DEBUT ALBUM RECORDED IN AUSTIN, TEXAS. FIONA HAS BEEN WELL-KNOWN ON THE AUSTRALIAN MUSIC SCENE FOR MANY YEARS, BUT WITH THIS ALBUM SHE STEPS OUT OF HER DOWN UNDER COMFORT ZONE AND TAKES ON THE AMERICAN BLUES SCENE. FIRST THERE IS THE PURE COUNTRY BLUES GROWL IN HER VOICE THAT CARRIES THE POWER OF EARLY COUNTRY BLUES MASTERS LIKE PATTON OR SON HOUSE. PICTURE WHAT MEMPHIS MINNIE MIGHT HAVE SOUNDED LIKE IF SHE RECORDED A DECADE EARLIER AND THEN THERE IS HER GUITAR PLAYING WHICH ALTERNATES BETWEEN HER PRECISE ACOUSTIC FINGER PICKING STRETCHES AND HER EXPLOSIVE ELECTRIC GUITAR GROOVES. THEN THERE IS HER SONGWRITING – FIONA ACTUALLY PENNED 10 OF THE ALBUM’S 13 SONGS. THE ALBUM TAKES YOU ON A TRIP DOWN SOUTH WITH A BIT OF FRONT PORCH JAMMING, A BIT OF ROCKABILLY AND SOME TIN-PAN ALLEY THROWN INTO THE MIX ALONG WITH SUPERB SOUTHERN DOWN-HOME BLUES. SUPERB ALBUM ******

TRACK LISTING: Chicken Wants Corn / Celebrate The Curves / Good Lord Made You So / Stranger In Your Eyes / You Gonna Miss Me / High Cotton / Pigmeat Lover / Hold Me / Red Hot Kisses / Big Bigger Biggest / Rambling Man Blues / Rockabilly On The Radio / Homesick Blues.
