Music Monday: L is for Lone Justice
Lone Justice arrived from LA
in the mid 1980s and blew me away. Vocalist Maria McKee is probably my all time favourite female voice although there are not many that I like.Is it country? Is it rock? It's both with a mass of other musical influences thrown in.1 Sweet Sweet Baby (album 1)2 Ways to Be Wicked (album 1) Co written by Tom Petty who's indluence is all over Lone Justice3 Reflected (album 2)4 I Found Love (album 2) both of these have gospel choir tones5 Wheels (album 2) a rare slow one for meThe second album was produced by the E Street Band's very own Steven Van Zandt and I love the big Springsteen-esque sound of it.Maria McKee of course went on as a solo artist after the band disbanded most totally with 'Show Me Heaven' and also writing 'A Good Heart' for Feargal Sharkey.Album info
