Bob Corritore & Friends Women In Blues Showcase (CD)

(Vizz Tone) 12 tracks, digisleeve.

This very special edition of Bob Corritore's "From The Vaults" series features great recordings by spectacular blues women from a wide geographic and stylistic spectrum.

Featured female vocalists include: Gulf Coast legends Barbara Lynn and Carol Fran; Chicago blues legend Koko Taylor, known as the Queen Of The Blues; Phoenix soul / blues / gospel diva Francine Reed; vocal powerhouse Diunna Greenleaf of Houston, Texas; the gentle wonder of rising Americana star Valerie June of Tennessee; Shy Perry from Mississippi, whose elusive name and stature produce a powerful Wang Dang Doodle; and Aliya Primer, daughter of Chicago blues great John Primer, with her very first recording, made with great authority at the age of 17!

Bob Corritore has recorded all of these wonderful women artists with great sensitivity to their stylistic and personal individuality! Check out a collection of spectacular female voices that, taken together, demonstrate both the undeniable power and the heartening vulnerability of the female voice.
