Marshall Road Apocalypse

If the big heels and the high-production fashion values have you skeptical about this lady, keep reading. Purring and snarling through €œYour One And Only€, crowing danger through the tasty acoustic gem €œBehind My Back€, double-daring her way through the buoyant €œPurple Tattoos€, Cathy Jean has a natural gift for pairing her formidable voice with some pretty mean presence and solid song-writing (not a single cover on the entire CD). Blues fans will want to skip string-coated pop fare like €œYou Don€t Know€, but most of the rest is great stuff-- seductive, tough and convincing, backed by a terrific group. Excellent and recommended. --Dave Kirby, Blues Access Magazine
