Defiant Blues Vocals On Vinyl LP!
Over the course of a career that has spanned more than four decades, Flores has jumped feet first into punk rock (with her '70s-era band, the Screaming Sirens), country music of both the Bakersfield and Nashville varieties, the Texas singer/songwriter scene, alt-country, straight-up rock, and rockabilly. So much so the latter, that her onstage moniker for years was ''Rockabilly Filly'' but through it all, she was the ''Chick with the Pick.' 'Profiled in Guitar World, Premiere Guitar and Guitar Player magazines, Flores was cited by Venuszine as one of the ''Top 75 Greatest Female Guitarists of All Time.'' Along the way, she released a number of critically acclaimed albums.
"Although the San Antonian-Austinite Flores originally made her way to the blues via punk rock, this album mostly stays in her familiar bluesy pocket. "Love Don't Love Nobody" sets the tone for the album: "love is the cause of my downfall" with the defiant devil-may-care vocals sashaying with the blues.
"One of the significant markers of this album is the case of musicians and the rich layered production that places instruments in different channels in ways that command your attention if you're a 'music first' connoisseur. Try "A Simple Case of the Blues" or "That's What You Gotta Do" to hear it best. - Melissa Clarke, Americanahighways.org, February 2019
