Yes, I know Aretha did this tune first but...last night we went to see Irma and she was soul stirringly awesome! At 70 she was in fine voice and great humor then when leaving the stage after going strong and taking requests from us her audience and fans, she winced dramatically as she made her stage exit. You'd have never known from her performance --- she truly shone as bright as any diamond star and her title Queen of New Orleans Show as never more apt and fitting. Thank you Irma for bring your soul and your heart to us on a very blue Sunday in London town.

An amazing take on a now classic tune, one of the best of the year (so far) from Ms Austin.

Ringo Starr It Don't Come Easy live
Music down memory lane......I was there...truth! I was working PR for cross country chain of radio stations owned by Merv Griffin at the time!
John Grant - It's Easier (Strongroom Session)
A winner of Mojo's Live Act award and one of the best albums of last year,' Queen of Denmark' that is never off my turntable!
Over the Rhine "The Laugh of Recognition"
Just a super song by some folks who have been getting better each year and over a 20 year history of listening to them...I think this one is the best yet!
