BUMP!
How about some new suggestions for the blues.
Mine is
Rita Chiarelli !!!!I was turned on to only one song by her, "Tupelo", and all I can say is WOW.
After hearing that cut I did a little research and found she has 4-5 cds out.
I listened to some snippits and promptly ordered 3 CDs.
Before I knew she was an Italian from Canada, I could have sworn she was a 60 year old African American lady from Mississippi.
And for those of you who love the blues and dont remember reading this thread, I would recommend reading it all the way through.
There are some GREAT suggestions here.
