I Want to Find others artists Like Carrie Smith

#1 Post by zaac » Sat Nov 27, 2004 4:20 am

Recently, i bought this album :
Carrie Smith - Confessin' The Blues

It contains very good Rhythmn and blues tracks for dancing, and some bluesy swinging pieces too.

Some people knows this one can advice me similar artists ?

Thanks for your help

very nice stuff! i might look for something by her.

the first artist who comes to mind if you're looking for similar artists is Ruth Brown, who did the original version of "Mama, He Treats Your Daughter Mean" among other tracks.

Read: The Ruth Brown thread. I just posted a few CD reviews over there.

Great album! I play songs from it all the time.

If you are looking for something similiar, you should definitely check out Barbara Morrison's Live at the 9:20 Special. Also, give a listen to Ruth Brown's Live in London and Fine Brown Frame and Esther Phillips' Confessin' The Blues.
