    Valoración: VERY GOOD

Ina Forsman is an attractive young Finnish blues singer, gifted with a powerful intense voice and a deep feeling, who perfectly knows how, when and where she has to blend her music Ina is the new vocal revelation in the Finnish Indie blues scene, so definitely she has a great future ahead In this album Ina is backed by Helge Tallqvist and his band Helge is a well-known harmonica player in the path of legendary Walter Horton The cd sound reminds and drives us back to the one that was done at Chess studios in Chicago during the fifties and sixties and, i must admit, they have quite faithfully got it The album includes fifteen well performed songs, with compositions coming from artists like Magic Sam, Slim Harpo, Johnny Otis or Fats Domino among others Their version of I’d rather go blind is simply perfect, the best I have heard so far, only overcome by the one of the always remembered Etta James The group has also participated in the recent European Blues Challenge held last April in Riga (Latvia) For those who could not be there, the cd is a valuable one that enables listeners to discover some excellent musicians belonging to the new generation of blues artists who are now growing in Finland
