Imelda May - No Turning Back

Imelda May has both an eclectic style and a unique voice that comes across as fresh. In fact, every album of hers delivers a variety if musical styles and shows her vocal range. "No Turning Back" is a foot-stomping first offering which effortlessly evokes the '50s jukebox joint era thanks to its swinging rhythms, honky tonk piano hooks, and bluesy guitar riffs. The songs all sound like the kind of feel-good tunes the Fonz would bop along to on "Happy Days". This recording is a consistently strong romp which undoubtedly helped sow the seeds for her future mainstream success.
