4.0 out of 5 stars
A MUST for fans of NEW ORLEANS BLUES!!!,
By regould2@msn.com (Madison, NJ) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Heartbreakin Woman (Audio CD)
This is one of the quintessential artists of New Orleans R&B. She is a veteran of the 3AM club scene of the French Quarter and a virtual powerhouse vocalist - once you've been in the front row of one of her shows and left dripping with MarvaSweat, you'll know the energy involved here! This album runs the gamut: from raw blues nuggets like "Bluesiana..." to gospel-drenched classics like "Don't miss Your Water", as well as playful Mardi-Gras-ish tunes. Treat yourself to this one - it won't disappoint.

Classic old-fashioned R&B,

This review is from: Heartbreakin Woman (Audio CD)
Marva Wright is a gifted New Orleans born vocalist and occasional songwriter (she wrote four of the songs on this album) who on this album sings up a storm. I was fortunate enough to see her live in New Orleans in 1999, and as well as being a great R&B singer she was also a really friendly person who signed my copy of this CD.Even if you're interested in Blues and Gospel you probably won't recognise all the titles on this album. Some are very well known and others quite obscure. They are all performed in a vocal style, that sometimes reminded me of Aretha Franklin. Theres lots of backing vocals, Hammond B-3 & Harmonica and occasional use of a brass section. My favourite track is the funky 'Let's Make Love' (one of her own compositions). Overall well worth getting and an album that will grow on you.
