Nicole Atkins- Mondo Amore-***1/2

Your thoughts are the same as mine re Rata. Still, it was nice listening to something as adventurous as her most recent release.
I agree. The second album wasn't a bad spin at all. If I had heard it first and not the debut, I may have raved, as well. It was just unexpected.
4 stars for Goodbye Cruel World—love it! It’s the production that brings that album down. There are some good songs buried in the mix. I saw Elvis and the lads on that tour. It says a lot that he was playing So You Want To Be a Rock ‘N’ Roll Star then.
I got to see Elvis and Steve last month. Really good show, and Elvis was in mostly fine voice. Still going at 70!
Good thoughts Bill
