Teresa James new CD on Black and Tan Records begins with "When The Winds Die Down," which could be interpreted as a a political parable about "the good old boys back in town." There's a baker's dozen songs that feature Teresa's strong vocals, and even though this Texas transplant calls the Los Angeles-area home, there's southern blues aplenty on On Yeah. If you haven't discovered Teresa James and the Rhythm Tramps, do yourself a favor and give her a listen at www.teresajames.com. You'll be in good company, along with Levon Helm, Kirk Whalum, Delbert McClinton, and a host of top-flight musicians who've shared the stage with her.

When the Winds Die Down * Come Up and See Me Sometime * My Heart Took a Beating * Easy Come, Easy Go * High Maintenance Man * Wind Cries the Blues * Easier Said Than Done * In and Out of Love * All That I Am * Just When I Thought * I'll Find Someone Who Will * I Want It All * May You Never
