GOD TOOK A CHANCE ON ME

Irma cleverly weaves her new ditties amid a competent bunch of conservative Nashville sessioners headed by Gene Breedon. Her non-radical departure into ‘Holy Ghost’ country-gospel territory, a la honky-tonk music mood, finds her in her fully matured colours. Delightfully warm and engaging, her gutsy easy-listening vocals communicates her testimony well in her self-compositions. Modest and grass-roots it may be, but Irma should take a well-deserved bow with these thirteen nostalgic mood-inspiring goodies. PAUL DAVIS https://www.tradebit.com
