With a delivery somewhere between Sister Rosetta Tharpe and the aforementioned Memphis Minnie, Chris’s own songs stay firmly within the tradition that has so inspired her, with trains, work gangs and cotton fields the backdrop to the usual tribulations of life, from hard lovin’ to just making ends meet workin’ for the Man. You can hear the passion, the commitment, and that gives her own songs the necessary authenticity, a true master’s apprentice.
