Mary Lee's Corvette was pretty gutsy when the band decided to cover Bob Dylan's 1975 classic, Blood on the Tracks, one September evening in 2001. Frontwoman Mary Lee Kortes wasn't entirely sure she wanted to go through with it, but lucky for listeners she did. What happened that evening was a magical turn of events at Arlene's Grocery in New York City. Kortes, who's vocally reminiscent of Maria McKee, proved to herself that she had what it took to pay tribute to her favorite artist without sounding too much like Mr. Dylan. Naturally, she was nervous, but the instrumentation of Mary Lee's Corvette didn't let that be known. Once the band kicked into the eight-minute rendition of "Idiot Wind," Mary Lee's Corvette soared into the night with a heavy disposition. "Meet Me in the Morning" follows suit with its gritty guitar drawl; Kortes truly lets it all go thanks to the nasty musical tango between her and guitarist Andy York. Who knew a Bob Dylan song could be so sexy? Mary Lee's Corvette gives new breadth to a timeless collection. She did it right, too. She invited members of the audience to join her on the country jaunt "Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts," allowing fellow fans to deliver their own Dylan impersonations. It's oddly hilarious, but leave it to Kortes to bring it back to the spotlight. While the harmonica on "Tangled Up in Blue" is sharp, the acoustics on the album are tight, reeling the crowd into the soundscape of each song. Blood on the Tracks: Recorded Live at Arlene's Grocery captures Kortes' musical spirit; the concept is quite impressive given that it is only her second album. ~ MacKenzie Wilson

Rolling Stone (10/3/02, p.102) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...This is a complete re-creation of Dylan's untouchable 1975 divorce album, executed with a quietly direct magnificence enhanced by the modesty of its origins and eclipsed only by Dylan's definitive recording..."
Mojo (Publisher) (4/03, p.108) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...It's a remarkable performance....Mary Lee takes on Dylan track by track focusing on the quality of the lyrics, and somehow enhancing that which we already know..."

$15.79 
Bob Dylan's 1975 Rolling Thunder Revue can be seen as a reaction to his tour of the year before with the Band. Playing arenas in a pressurized atmosphere left little room for the kind of happy musical accidents that were so central to Dylan's live ethos. Rolling Thunder was more suited to his mercurial vision; a spontaneously ...

Free's second album was recorded with the band itself in considerable turmoil as principle songwriters Paul Rodgers and Andy Fraser demanded strict discipline from their bandmates, and guitarist Paul Kossoff, in particular, equally demanded the spontaneity and freedom that had characterized the group's debut. It was an awkward period that saw both Kossoff and drummer Simon Kirke come close to quitting, an eventuality that only the intervention of label chief Chris Blackwell seems to have prevented. Few of these tensions are evident on the finished album -- tribute, again, to Blackwell's powers of diplomacy. He ...

What's my music like? It's edgier than a bowl of lime green jello, way more stimulating than a sedative, and almost as much fun as my brother-in-law's stand-up comedy routine. But seriously...I've lived a lot of life, and seen my share of highs and lows. For me, singing and songwriting are cathartic, healing, and energizing. Listen to my songs and you'll have a better understanding of my world, and maybe of yours too." - Sheryl PaigeSo just what will ...
