'Mae Moore Scores With `Power of Love, Not the Love of Power'

Mae Moore and Lester Quitzau, Oh My!

On nine original compositions (including two instrumental guitar duets) and two covers, Mae Moore and Lester Quitzau bring energy and intimacy as well as pro-digious talents to their first joint CD. Quitzau’s appealing baritone, well-suited to bluesy numbers like “Troubled Ways,” and understated guitar and Dobro are a perfect match for the control, range, and versatil-ity of Moore’s lustrous vocals, which, especially on “Stepping Through Fire,” bring Joni Mitchell to mind. Moore and Quitzau have made solo CDs of their own, but together they have something special. The vocal harmonies and sensitive guitar fills are downright exquisite on “Here and Gone,” Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan’s “Hold On,” and the bluesy version of Jimi Hendrix’s “Little Wing,” where Quitzau’s slide really soars.

"I thought I knew every great female singer in this world from Maria Callas, Elisabeth Schwarzkopf and Cecilia Bartoli to Joni Mitchell, Jennifer Warnes, Sandy Denny, Linda Thompson, Bonnie Raitt, Dar Williams and Gillian Welch. To be honest: I never heard of Mae Moore before. A shame.OH MY! is one of my candidates for best recorded/engineered album of the year..."
