Editorial Reviews :
This reissue of the Boston favorite's 1995 debut clearly highlights her greatest strength: her voice. Susan Tedeschi has been singing since she was 4 years old, and it shows; her voice has the power and control that comes from long experience. If her version of 'Hound Dog' doesn't blow the top off of Big Mama Thornton's original, it's still a strong effort, and she's just as good with her own material. The title track--penned by Adrienne Hayes, guitarist for Tedeschi's band--is especially good, as the slow tempo allows Tedeschi to stretch her pipes a bit. Unfortunately, even by the release of Just Won't Burn, Tedeschi's guitar hadn't caught up with her voice, and the discrepancy is even more obvious here--there's a spark, but it doesn't quite catch fire. Still, there's no question that her heart's in the right place, and if her guitar work continues to improve, there'll be no stopping her. --Genevieve Williams
Buyer Reviews :
I bought Just Won't Burn on a whim at a music store and fell in love with it the same day. I heard this woman named Susan Tedeschi with this remarkable bluesy voice that so reminded me of Bonnie Raitt. And who doesn't love Bonnie Raitt. But I discovered Susan Tedeschi is even better. Her voice has that Janis Joplin edge on tracks like It Hurt So Bad and Rock me Right.
I recently bought Better Days and love this album too though it's not quite as strong as Just Won't Burn. But that's a good thing cause we want our artists to improve with each album. That isn't to say Better Days isn't great. The title track is well written and well sung. It's an amazing ballad-like blues song. I also enjoy Love Never Treats Me Right and Locomotive. I feel the best track on this set, though, is Ain't Nobody's Business. It's pure blues and shows us just how much talent this lady has.
I recommend this to blues fans, Bonnie Raitt fans, Janis Joplin fans, and just fans of artist who really can sing. Susan Tedeschi is a superstar and should continue to get more recognition from the public especially with a bigger record label. She is currently writing and recording songs for her new album. I hope she takes her time. I saw improvement with Just Won't Burn from Better Days. I want to see improvement again. But it's difficult to improve on perfection!!!
