From sweet and smooth classics, to new names, to old names with new music...the focus here, is to shine a little light on some damn fine music.

I'll find it. You can listen, review, or tell me I wouldn't know good music if it kicked me in the ass. I personally don't give a shit.

Beth Hart: Bang Bang Boom Boom

Some artists work for years to achieve success and never attain it. Some attain it and lose themselves in the process. Only the really lucky and determined ones reach the top of the mountain a second time.

Such appears to be the case with Beth Hart. Back in the 90's her star was on the rise with a breakout song, "LA Song (Out of This Town)" appearing on Beverly Hills 90210 and she was headlining a tour. Inner conflicts of drugs, alcohol and an undiagnosed bi-polar disorder turned a successful career into a downward spiral. It was only through good fortune, love and determination that she has emerged from the depths stronger and more capable of singing the blues.

Her new album Bang Bang Boom Boom has just been released and Beth is touring again as a headline act. Playing last night at the Crossroads Festival at Madison Square Garden with some of the biggest names in the music world, Beth Hart has come full circle.

Bang Bang Boom Boom is an interesting blues ride. For my full review, please jump over to Beth Hart's "Bang Bang Boom Boom" Album Review at ourvinyl.com.

    1. Hi Ismael, if you click on the link to the review, I do reference the "Don't Explain" album, and there's a taste of the title song to hear. She is terrific. By the way, I think you left the basketball in a bar in Rhode Island. lol
