Free Music Notes for Temptation
Free Music Review: Is there such a thing as "country-jazz"??
Hit: 5 Stars
I guess so, 'cause I'm listening to this album as I type. From the gorgeous cover photo, and the opening bars of the title cut, we know we're not in for standard country fare. Shelby has long given us genre bending music [not gender bending; that's Katy Peery...Shelby is always definitely a girl], and this 1993 release is but one example. After the opening "Temptation", the next two cuts, "Feelin' Kind of Lonely Tonight", and "Tell Me I'm Crazy" have a more country feel. At the other end, "Come a Little Closer", and "Where Do We Go From Here" have a blues quality.
Shelby Lynne is a treasure...her roots are country, but you can in no wise classify her with one word. [True of her kid sister, Allison Moorer, as well]. Look at her cover pictures over the years; very pretty, not pretty at all, and two or three different ways to say "sexy". This MAY be her best...that's opinion anyway, but Shelby's records are just too different one from the other to make it easy. The picture, the music, even the extraneous chatter...all done well. Enjoy.....
Temptation Poster
Only after leaving Nashville did Shelby Lynne reinvent herself as a soulful R&B singer. During her Music City days of the early '90s, she gained critical raves that didn't translate into wider success. One reason was this fetching 1993 Nashville-produced album of big-band Western swing, produced by Brent Maher, which appeared long before the words swing revival crossed anyone's lips. It revealed Lynne's assets in a stronger showcase than her earlier Epic recordings. She's radiant and sensual on the torchy "Little Unlucky at Love," but the uninhibited swing tunes, including her explosive performance of the title number, defined the album. She maintained that finger-popping momentum with "Some of That True Love" and "The Rain Might Wash Your Love Away." Lynne turned seductress on "Tell Me I'm Crazy" and honky-tonker on "I Need a Heart to Come Home To," the album's most overtly country number. Now that Lynne's gained wider exposure, it's worth remembering that pushing the envelope is nothing new for her. --Rich KienzleCountry Music CDs
