Editorial Reviews

SUICIDE SAL"" was a different sort of album to its predecessor ""QUEEN OF THE NIGHT"" as she had been playing live and the material had already been ""road tested"" and she captured on this release more of a ""rockier"" live feel. Fellow label mate JIMMY PAGE of Led Zeppelin even played on one of the tracks. Includes informative sleeve notes written by KEITH SMITH editor of Two Miles From Heaven

5.0 out of 5 stars WOW!, November 9, 1999

Maggie Bell is Glasgow's answer to Janis Joplin(now living in quiet obscurity in Holland), and what a voice she has too! The title track is one of her own compositions (deicated to her Aunt)and must be one of the greatest songs of all time! This is a MUST HEAR - MUST HAVE CD!

5.0 out of 5 stars Suicide Sal review, June 12, 2003

I collect 8-tracks. So, recently I went into my hometown thrift store to look around. Then, there on the shelf was a pink 8-track titled "Suicide Sal" by some artist named Maggie Bell that I'd never heard of before. I decided to buy it just because I don't have any pink 8-tracks. Much to my surprise when I got home, the album was one of the most sonically stunning I'd heard in a long time. I was utterly amazed. This woman was like Janis Joplin times three. Since then I haven't been able to put it down. I highly recommend this album to anyone looking for something fresh or new sounding. Five stars. *****

5.0 out of 5 stars Maggie at her best, October 1, 1999

This album contains the best blues sound ever from a white female vocalist. Maggie with her very unique and powerful voice performs two great covers from Free & The Beatles plus others. If you like her, get her group album "Stone The Crows" and thank me later. Also reply to a music fan from Mexico, all Maggie Bell & Stone The Crows albums are released on Polydor label during 70s.
