THE KATE LUSH is a five piece blues band that hails from Sydney, Australia. This 9 song Cd is a real thrill because Kate and the band play cover songs that were done by Steve Winwood, Koko Taylor, The Allman Brothers and song artists you might know.
The band is: KATE LUSH-Vocals; STEVE EDMUNDS-Lead, rhythm guitar: WES HARDER-Piano, hammond organ; TIM WILSON-Bass and TONY BOYD-Drums. NIGHT TIME IS THE RIGHT TIME kicks off this CD with a sweet intro of the lead guitar with the hammond organ sneaking in as Kate's vocals sings this song to you with all her heart and soul.
I must admit, I feel some Janis Joplin coming out of her vocals are strong and clear. What a superb song as the band gets deep into it. Check it out. CAN'T FIND MY WAY HOME , which is the Blind Faith song, sounds so sweet as the band does their version of the song. There is no doubt you'll love their version of this song.Turn it up and enjoy the ride.
YOURS OR ON MY WAY is great as the band is as tight as ever as her vocals once again are pure soulful as it can get. I must admit, it reminds me of Bonnie Bramlett on this song and that says a lot.
Also, the band really jams away on this song that is great to hear. WHIPPING POST is an epic song in itself and this version is quite amazing. The band is on top of every note as her vocals are as strong as ever. This is one of the best versions of this song I have heard in a long time. I love it.
CROSSROADS brings this CD to an end. The band does a choppy version of it, but it still sounds superb. Crank it up and let the blues get into your soul. I do like how they made this song 'their own'. I'd like to THANK KATE LUSH for being in touch. You can find the band at: Bandcamp, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Pandora, Spotify, Apple Music and other sites. ROCK ON, JIM ALLFORD [STEEL NOTES MAGAZINE.]
