Review

Red Hot Mamas highlights the talents of up-and-coming female blues performers, many from the Chicago area. Except for Peaches Staten, each artist is featured on two tracks; strong performances abound, with singers Shirley Johnson and Patricia Scott making the strongest impressions. Others present include Karen Carroll, Lynne Jordan, Bonnie Lee, and Liz Mandville Greeson. ~ Steve Huey, All Music Guide
