2013 release, one of two albums released by the acclaimed Soul vocalist. The modern soul songs of Quinn Deveaux, sung in his sweet tenor over a spare guitar or carried by his band's bright tones, from those gutbucket barrooms where rock-n-roll was born, to the pine-walled shacks, nearby, where it's gospel-forebears rent their souls. But this artist's singular sound, making old tones new, is Quinn's alone. His acclaimed Blue Beat Review has been thrilling San Francisco's lovers of rollicking early R&B, and a good time, for years.
