Title: nice start
Review: I picked up this cd after receiving a complimentary 3 song advance release teaser at Borders. The music on that 3 song disc was fairly engaging, but when I found out that Betty Wright produced the CD my interest was truly piqued. The notes on the advance release say that this isn't her official first release, but just a side project and the official first CD is being finished. This is basically a survey of 70s soul. A couple of nice ballads and a couple of funkier ones balance out a set of good midtempo tunes. The vocals are dark and warm and the band is very good. The White Stripes cover is a bit lame except for the bass player. I hope the "real" first album is an adequate follow up.
