Lisa BialesSinging In My Soul (Big Song Music).

Lisa’s eighth album on Big Song showcases her diverse musical tastes. There’s Gospel with the triumphant eponymous title track. Country Blues are represented by Let The Mermaids Flirt With Me, which just falls short of David Johanssen’s version. You Got To Know How is a bar-room Blues of high order whereas I Only Have Eyes For You is given an excellent slow Jazz treatment. There is good rise and fall in her voice and she has a wonderful tone throughout. The only self-penned song is the childlike Magic Garden, whilst Write Me In Care Of the Blues has a 50s Blues sound and may just be a little too clean.
