Sue Foley – Live in Austin – Volume 1
So, after her last two releases I once again adopted a rule that I first applied in the ’90s and should never have stopped – if I see Sue Foley, I buy Sue Foley. Very straightforward.
Looking at the black and white cover photo, I originally thought this was probably a live show from way back when. But it turns out it was recorded in May 2023, and it is, as the kids say, fire.
There are some great covers on this – Howlin’ Wolf’s “Howlin’ For My Darling,” “Queen Bee,” even “Positively 4th Street,” among others. In fact, only four of the tracks are Foley’s songs. Maybe that’s how her live sets go. There had better be a volume 2, that’s all I can say.
