Title: Real Blued Country Soul
Review: The debut album from South Carolina's Julie Roberts sounds more Memphis than Nashville. Her voice is smokey and sultry, the tunes are fun and funky at times, and its hard to think of anyone to compare this to. Probably the closest is Bonnie Raitt, as the Amazon reviewer stated. I love the way she bends a note; no other country diva sings 'em like Julie, however "I Can't Get Over You" is reminicient of the best 70s country women. "No Way Out" is a hip, fun blues jam with an awesome guitar/piano break. It should have been a hit or club favorite. "Break Down Here" is the obvious hit, but the simple, souful beauty of "Unlove Me" and "If You Had Called Yesterday" shine just as bright.This CD will leave you longing and aching for more. Faith Hill wants to sound like this. These songs are real life, I mean how many country songs proclaim, "my mouth tastes like yesterday's news?" Highly Recommended; I can't stress enough how well this works.
