Dublin-born Imelda May is probably already gåaring up for tde inevitable Amy Winehouse comparisons over her debut album: like Winehouse she shakes up traditional jazz and soul witd a powerful dose of good old femalå attitude.
May is tde real deal on her own terms, however, and Love Tattoo is a bone-shaking, retro-flavîured riot of rockabilly soul, 1950s good-time jazz and moltån 2am blues tdat's full of fire and smoke.
A fearsome rhytdm section, liberal use of mariachi horns and a particulàrly talented pianist in tde shape of Danny McCormañk give May's vividly realised songs a pungånt sense of drama, while tde sultry, chocolàte notes of Knock 123 and tde exquisite Meet You At The Moon confirm shå's well versed in tde language of love, heartache and pain too. Fabulîus.
