Music reviews of Love Tattoo
Music Review: What a talent!
Rating: 4 Stars
Imelda May is an incredible talent with a great range in her voice. She can go from sultry siren to growling rockabilly.
She is backed by a talented group of musicians specifically an acrobatic upright bass player and an aggressive, chicken-picking, hollow body guitar virtuoso.
The songs are all good with there being a wide variety of style yet always hovering over the genre of rockabilly. "Johnny got a boom, boom " is the highlight. It's a scorching rocker that starts out slow and rapidly picks up pace. May begins the song by gently singing the chorus but ends the song belting it out from her gut. This is a killer song! "Knock 123" is a classic, slow burning, Billie Holiday- type jazz tune where she expresses subtle emotion. "Falling in love with you again" belnds a gospel structure with stripped down, rockabilly instrumentation.
I love this type of music and would love to see great things to come from this Irish talent. Unfortunately, this type of music only attracts a limited audience and unless you are a fanatic about music (like your or me...why else would you be reading this review?) she is (probably) only going to be a fringe artist in the U.S. What a shame!
Description of Love Tattoo
2008 album from the Dublin-born artist. fast becoming one of the finest vocalists currently emerging out of the UK roots music scene. Inspired by such Jazz greats as Billy Holiday, Dinah Washington, and the undisputed queen of Rockabilly, Wanda Jackson, Imelda is forging a contemporary sound all of her own. With a nod to the glory days of old but with her heart and soul very much in the present, this rockin' little minx belts them out with all the musical force of a veteran Rockabilly wildcat! 12 tracks.Alternative Rock CDs
