Smooth to taste, the band and Susan are delicious. Even Susan's ever so slightly sickly "thank you" between each song reminds me of chocolate. The sound created by the band is superb, moving, yes smoothly!, from rock to blues to near Gospel, creating that indefinable "American" sound. Supported apparantly effortlessly by an excellent rhythm section, and using piano,Hammond B3 & guitar, along with occasional violin, to great effect, the songs merit this class of performer. Although it takes to track four to hear Susan let rip with her guitar. Certainly worth buying. I can't wait for Susan's next effort, each of the three albums is incredibly different. Tasty.
