Saw Rory Block at The Barns at Wolf Trap last night -- she was excellent! I've seen Rory's name here and there over the years but had never heard her voice (that I was aware), let alone attend a performance. If you dig the blues, go see her!!! Tour schedule here: http://www.roryblock.com/andex.htm (tonight she'll play in NC).
Rory just released her 14th album, "I'm Every Woman," which features some Motown covers (apparently quite a departure for her). Mary and I bought the CD (and had it autographed, of course), and listened to it on the drive home. It's wonderful, esp. Al Green's "Tired of Being Alone," and Ashford & Simpson's "Ain't Nothin' Like the Real Thing" -- a duet with Keb' Mo'. A new Rory fan here ... (can ya tell?)
