Perennial blues award winner Angel Forrest’s powerful pipes are but half of the story.  Her habit of dialing things down to a whisper then back to full force weaves a most seductive spell through this delightful two-disc “live” set.  Joplin comparisons are inevitable and Ms. Forrest doesn’t duck the issue, delivering solidly on classics such as “Me and Bobby McGee”, ‘Piece Of My Heart” and “Turtle Blues”.  Other tracks of note include “All The Way” and “Mother Tongue Blues”.
