Her Boogie-Woogie piano playing draws from Swamp Rock and Zydeco to achieve a unique flavor, while her songwriting always returns to the blues. Authentically southern and unforced, these tracks illustrate Ball's great feel for both slow blues and Boogie-Woogie. Her smoky, intriguing vocals do justice to every tune, while the piano swings mischievously behind her. A southern artist to her core, Ball draws on the best music of her region to impressive effect. - Eric SheaTexas Bluesen720Sun, 29 Nov 2009 20:07:07 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.5324&rws=%2Fmarcia-ball%2Fmusic-videos.rss Marcia Ball is one of the best-known artists to come out of the fertile Louisiana-Texas delta that spawned such greats as Janis Joplin and Lonnie Brooks.
