This is album number three for another one of Canada’s best kept secrets. If you have heard of Stevie Salas and his Colorcode project, then you will get the vibe of this album as it feels like a Colorcode record with Sass singing. That’s not taking anything away from Sass. She is amazing, it’s just the vibe is so close.
It’s those funkier tracks that really do it for me though. Her voice fits so well, and I am partial to some Stevie Salas. Damaged opens up the album and the groove is so freakin’ groovy, I mean what a way to open a record. However, the best vocal track is undoubtedly Pissin’ Down. It’s a slower mood tune where you get the full force of that incredible voice and some nice guitar from Stevie. High Road Easy was a single. I remember hearing it on the radio and immediately went out to source a copy of the album. Killer tune and groove!
This album came out in ’94 and she is still cranking out great records with last year’s Bitches Blues a case in point.
8/10 from The Grooveman.
