Personnel: Rory Block (vocals, guitar, acoustic guitar, piano, synthesizer, background vocals); Larry Campbell (guitar); Edgar Raspovic (electric guitar); John Kirk (fiddle); John Sebastian (harmonica); Larry Hoppen (piano); Brian Brake (drums). Recording information: Cathedral Sound Studios, Rensselaer, NY; Grog Kill Studio, Willow, NY; Skyline Studios, New York, NY; Spectrum Recorders. Photographer: Catherine Sebastian. Block bounced all over the musical lot on this session. She did vintage folk tunes such as "Frankie and Johnny" effectively and covered Rev. Gary Davis' "Feel Just Like Goin' On" and the spiritual "Swing Low" with vigor, but wasn't as compelling on "Catastrophe Rag" or the bittersweet/satiric "Just Like A Man." Block's voice and talents are versatile enough to handle multiple styles, but she remains first and foremost a fine interpreter of classic blues and gospel. When she opts for the singer/songwriter bit or folk/country mode, she's professional enough to bring it off, but lacks the flair or distinctiveness to make it sound anything except competent. ~ Ron Wynn
