O’s Notes: Irene’s lowdown bluesy vocals match up very well with the band, especially Charles Earland’s B3! Her singing is fun and entertaining with selections ranging from classic jump tunes like “Candy” to covers of 1972’s “Me and Mr. Jones” and 1996’s “I Believe I Can Fly”. These are blues to treasure.
