Giving this a try via Tidal...
Prompted by Berts post on the "What New Releases ...." Thread.
Single from the upcoming album - available on Tidal. Quite rocky, not breaking any new ground , worth a few more spins.

Try Amazon UK as you can get it for about 9 squid the last time I saw it.
This is the blurb for the album
"Imagine Etta James riding a Harley out of an active volcano, and you'll have some vague inkling as to the vocal power emanating from 'Roach', the fronywoman of L.A. blues and groove unit Cafe R&B. But don't take our word for it; the group has earned raves from the likes of Ike Turner and Buddy Guy, who've seen a few blues acts in their day... Roach has found the perfect musical counterpoint in the scorching leads of Byl Carruthers, and the ultra -phat organ and piano work of Harry Cohen. Café's rhythm section drummer Steve Klong, and bassist Ken Dooley handle the songs' vast dynamic range with aplomb...
Suzanne Vega. 99.9 F°. On CD from 1992. First listen. A very good album with a nice musical drive throughout and excellent SQ.
