Crazy 'Bout You Baby

[aleuzzi]

It's been 18 months or so since I first got "Madison Blues" as an import. I am still knocked sideways by the live-in-studio version of "Crazy 'Bout You baby" (track 5). The band sounds so tight, Kirwan's solo is jagged and piercing, while Spencer's slide solo is rowdy--even sexy. But it's her voice. Damn, she can sing r and b! This song, along with the live version of "I'm on My Way" mark an interesting direction she didn't pursue on Future Games. They sound more convincing and confident than, say, "Morning Rain." Any thoughts?
