Irma Thomas is one of New Orleans' most beloved and iconic entertainers. On After The Rain, the Soul Queen of New Orleans brings her rich and resonant vocals to a surprisingly varied repertoire that spans 75 years of American songwriting, the common thread being Irma's soulful and direct-from-the-heart delivery. Spare and often acoustic instrumental settings by an all-star Louisiana band allow Irma's vocals to shine through on each song. Recorded at rural Dockside Studio in Maurice, Louisiana only months after Hurricane Katrina, After The Rain is a remarkable declaration of resilience, presenting Irma Thomas at her very best. The album earned Thomas her first GRAMMY® for Best Contemporary Blues Album.
Remixed and remastered audio pressed on 180-gram vinyl double LP, housed in gatefold jacket packaging.
After the Rain is a timeless work of art.
