Not only that, when first hearing her music, you would<br \/>\nautomatically think it was Etheridge. Her rough, raw vocals will<br \/>\neasily turn heads in wanting to give her a listen, likewise her<br \/>\nlooks are very easy on the eyes as well. (Which is why I grabbed<br \/>\n<i>Racine<\/i>, browsing through the &#8220;J&#8221; section of the local record<br \/>\nstore, I just couldn&#8217;t pass it up, and be curious as to who this<br \/>\nblonde bombshell was. I was not disappointed.)<\/p>\n<p>Her musical style can also be compared to The Black Crowes. If<br \/>\nthe Crowes were to take on a female lead singer, &#8220;Make You A<br \/>\nBeliever&#8221; would be a good example, likewise, &#8220;Who Do You Think You<br \/>\nAre. &#8220;You Don&#8217;t Have To Remind Me&#8221; is a cool ballad, her voice is<br \/>\ntruly exceptional. &#8220;I Want To Believe&#8221; is another ballad, and it<br \/>\nproves that not only can Jordan record some outstanding rockers,<br \/>\nher ballads are just as entertaining.<\/p>\n<p>The album&#8217;s true rocker is &#8220;If You&#8217;re Gonna Love Me.&#8221; This<br \/>\nparticular tune should be a radio favorite, as it truly ROCKS in<br \/>\nevery sense. Her voice sounds exactly as Etheridge&#8217;s, likewise on<br \/>\n&#8220;Windin&#8217; Me Up,&#8221; another rocker that could easily be another radio<br \/>\nfavorite.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Goin&#8217; Back Again&#8221; is somewhere between pop and today&#8217;s country<br \/>\nsound, as her voice could fit most female country artists, and just<br \/>\na little of Etheridge&#8217;s and\/or Black Crowes. Getting back to the<br \/>\nbasic rock &#8216;n&#8217; roll, &#8220;Do What Ya Want&#8221; is another barroom rocker.<br \/>\n&#8220;Cry Baby&#8221; has ballad verses, with a rocking chorus &#8212; the music is<br \/>\noutstanding, and if Janis Joplin was alive today, this song could<br \/>\neasily be hers.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Where There&#8217;s A Will&#8221; has the basic rock &#8216;n&#8217; roll Black Crowes<br \/>\nsound, and is another great rocker. &#8220;Time Flies&#8221; has a much more<br \/>\nBlack Crowes sound, and it&#8217;s another great tune, ending an album<br \/>\nthat has the listener wanting to hear more of a lady by the name of<br \/>\nSass Jordan.<\/p>\n<p>A great rock album,<br \/>\n<i>Racine<\/i> will have Black Crowes and Melissa Etheridge fans<br \/>\nsearching for more of her music. All of the songs were co-written<br \/>\nby Jordan, and as I continue looking in the record stores, I have<br \/>\nyet to see any other releases. Yet, according to her<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.sassjordan.com\">main website<\/a>, she has 5<br \/>\nalbums as of 2003. It would be interesting (and most likely worth<br \/>\nit) to listen to her remaining releases.<br \/>\n<i>Racine<\/i> will surely have repeated listens, as this album is a<br \/>\ngreat rock album, and Jordan&#8217;s music should not be overlooked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":26412,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"artist":[6874],"rating":[5646],"class_list":["post-37644","review","type-review","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","artist-sass-jordan","rating-rating-a"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review\/37644","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/review"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=37644"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review\/37644\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26412"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=37644"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"artist","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artist?post=37644"},{"taxonomy":"rating","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rating?post=37644"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
