Delta Blues in the nude. Well, that's the cover's innuendo, but in reality the relevance is that much is stripped back, basic foot-stomping blues, or Celtic folk, and fine for that. Opener 'Black Cat Bone' sets one tone with slide guitar, simple drumming, and dual harmonising. Hat Fitz plays a mean, screaming harmonica and has the vocal of Seasick Steve about him, or vice versa - it's a generic hard blues calling. The sweeter antidote to Fitz's Aussie appropriation of dirtblues is heard in the pretty flute and Irish drumming of partner and wife Cara Robinson on instrumental 'Fitzmullolland'. This more melodic alternative is also presented in fourth track 'Where It All Began' where Cara sings prettily and is accompanied by fiddle. The album moves between these differences, but gets merged, for example, on sixth track 'Nobody's Fault But Mine' where Fitz plays a calm, seductive and electric blues slide and Cara sings in a pure and beautiful voice. 'Lay Me Down' with acoustic slide and Cara's vocal is gorgeous. It's a neat combination.

I went to around 10 folk festivals last summer ranging in size from Dent to Cambridge. Never even heard of this duo before , never mind seen. Enjoyed more than anybody else I saw all year and went down a storm (at Southwell). Some great Delta slide blues playing but what makes this two different (apart from being a hairy Aussie and a N Ireland beauty) is the latter clearly steeped in more traditonal Irish music...she sits aside snare drums whilst accompanying on flute or singing or playing the washboard ..and what complementing voices! She is really a great singer, one number reminded me of Bessie Smith. And it all comes over on the CD..it's unbelievable the sound from just two of them (with some added backing on the CD). Hard edged slide blues with a beat and a growling voice to match (Fitz) to soaring Cara....and a nice couple two, had a chat about his slide playing. Had glass one made for him with metal strips. Only thing is I paid them £10 for this CD, a mixture of trad (such as Nobody's Fault but Mine) to their own material. Highly recommended.
