"Lola is phenomenal!! I stumbled on her way back in 2003 and have been hooked ever since! Lola takes a song and OWNS it! This CD is fabulous, I love every single cut, haven't determined a favorite quite yet, though I'm partial to Ties that Bind. If you go to Atlanta or she's touring in a city near you, do yourself a favor, and see her live it will be an experience you will never forget!! Lola is a real diamond that just get brighter & brighter! Gift yourself and a friend this CD, you won't be disappointed."
This lady has soul /blues chops!

"You may not know this lady but you should. This is one of the best soul/blues cds of 2007. Her voice is strong, clear, defiant, soulful, bluesy, sweet as honey, and always gets to the meat of a song. There are hints of Etta James and Whitney Houston, but then again she is uniquely Lola. This is a strong collection of soul, southern soul and blues. Some highlight are The Blues Chose Me, I've Got Feet, Let's Call it a Night, Wash Hands, and more. I have to say I have a weakness for her ballsy, defiant songs, but she croons a few romantic tunes that will make you feel like a hot buttered biscuit. Take note, Lola has arrived, and if there is any justice in this music business she will have staying power. The legendary William Bell produced this CD and does a very nice duet with Lola. I had to order another CD for one lucky friend of mine."
