Amazon.com This Boston-bred blueswoman's follow-up to Just Won't Burn, which earned her a Best New Artist Grammy nomination in 2000, trades its predecessor's bar-band bluster for a sensual, soulful approach. By slowing the tempos, Tedeschi is able to make the most of the warm, middle range of her voice, pouring honey all over sweet ballads and making the Memphis funker "Alone" jump like a lost Hi Records nugget. Although her guitar-star husband, Derek Trucks, adds fire to two numbers, including Paul Pena's classic "Gonna Move," Tedeschi herself dishes out some fat-toned, terse solos that sting with the style of the late Johnny "Guitar" Watson. Also here is a haunting take on Bob Dylan's "Don't Think Twice," which fits perfectly with Tedeschi's own songs about mature romance. And she teams with Handy Award-winning country-blues duo Paul Rishell and Annie Raines for the spare and touching acoustic tune "Blues on a Holiday." Wait for Me may not win Tedeschi the attention her last album drew, but it's far better, and it marks her arrival as a full-grown artist. --Ted Drozdowski
Album Description This 11-track collection is the follow-up to Tedeschi's critically acclaimed, gold-certified 1998 release `Just Won't Burn,' an album that earned her a "Best New Artist" Grammy nomination in 2000. `Wait For Me' features several new originals written and produced by Tedeschi, as well as inspired readings of songs by Bob Dylan ("Don't Think Twice") and Paul Pena ("Gonna Move") among others. Veteran producer/engineer Tom Dowd (Aretha Franklin, Eric Clapton, John Coltrane) helmed some of the `Wait For me' sessions, and contributors on the album include Tedeschi's husband and young guitar hero Derek Trucks; southern music stalwart Col. Bruce Hampton; and legendary pianist, Chuck Berry collaborator, and rock & roll architect Johnnie Johnson.

Susan is an Angel!! January 21, 2008 C. M. Masters (ALBANY, GA) This is one of the best female blues records you will ever here. The band is incredible; the girl is an angel!!! Wonderful soul that reaks of Al Green, as well as, good old funky blues and vocal showcase songs!! BUY THIS RECORD!!! YOU WON'T BE SORRY!!!
I love this album! October 26, 2007 J. Reeder (Denver, CO) I love to listen to this while I'm cooking. It makes me feel so great!
Rock on Susan August 11, 2007 Karen Stern (Colchester, VT) I loved this CD, though I haven't heard any of her others. I am a big fan of her voice--such warmth in it, very rare these days--and thought 'Alone' was totally kickass. Also liked the spirit of songs like 'In the Garden' and the sophistication of 'Blues on a Holiday.' I do think that Derek Trucks' guitar playing is a little overrated. But this CD was well worth the price for me. I'm looking forward to hearing some others.
Who says it won't burn October 18, 2005 J. Johnson (Manassas, VA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
An awesome Cd. The disc opens with the Al Green influenced memphis soul number Alone, which alone is worth the price of the disc. Followed by the late Paul Pena's Gonna Move featuring some tasty slide by husband Derek Trucks. (Must be nice to call on the best slide player in the world for your CD) Other highlights include a wicked version of Don't Think Twice It's All Right and a blistering I Fell In Love. Also included are a tip of the hat to Atlanta music legend Bruce Hampton and a smoky Blues on a Holiday. Though this has been out for a year or more, if you don't own it you should get it today.

No Problem...that's what I like in a sale. The used CD I purchased was perfect condition and was on time.
