Album Notes

"Blues prodigy"
-Boston Globe 1/3/01

"Changing the face of the blues"
-The Today Show 2/27/01

"Lydia can flat out play. Period."
-Greg Sarni, promoter of the Boston Blues Festival 7/1/01

"Lydia Warren has the rarest of gifts: the phenomenal talent to write and perform song that express the inexpressible, to sing melodies and play guitar licks that go far beyond twelve bar blues, to give us a glimpse into the deep dark soul of humanity like John Coltrane and Billie Holiday and Robert Johnson and Hank Williams, like Dylan's 'Blood On The Tracks' and Van Morrison's 'Astral Weeks'. You want to know about heartbreak, sadness, loss, and regret? You want to know how it feels to live through the worst life has to offer and emerge triumphant? The voice of Lydia Warren can tell you. Go see her at a venue near you now, and savor telling your grandkids that you saw her way back when."
