Shannon Curfman

Loud Guitars, Big Suspicions

Shannon Curfman (1999)

11 tracks, blues/rock

I checked this CD out of the library. I liked it almost enough to buy it.

Almost.

The reviewers describe Curfman as an able guitarist. I would agree with that.

She has a nice voice. None of the reviewers made this comparison, but her voice reminds me of Janis Joplin.

Curfman co-wrote 7 of the 11 tracks.

The two tracks I liked best were True Friends and I Don’t Make Promises (I Can’t Break).

She does The Weight by The Band. The reviewers slobbered all over her version. Maybe my problem is that I have heard that song way too many times. I am so sick of it that no one could do a version that I liked.
