Better Days (Susan Tedeschi Album)
''Better Days'' is the debut album by American blues artist Susan Tedeschi, originally released in 1995 under the name Susan Tedeschi Band, but later re-released in 1998 after she found national success with ''Just Won't Burn''. Reception In a review for AllMusic, Erik Crawford stated that the album "finds Tedeschi's guitar prowess and eminent vocals proliferating the musical landscape in the same manner of blues legends who have gone before her," and wrote that she has "proven herself worthy of sharing the stage with the masters." The authors of ''The Penguin Guide to Blues Recordings'' praised Tedeschi's voice, describing it as "rich in volume, consistency and natural ease, with a use of melisma that hints at classic soul." However, they criticized her lyrics, noting that they "undermine the authority that heestablishes with her voice." Track listing #"It's up to You" (Lamond, Tedeschi) – 4:19 #"Gonna Write Him a Letter" (Tedeschi) – 3:05 #"Love Never Treats Me Right" (Ted ...

Gospel Music
Gospel music is a traditional genre of Christian music, and a cornerstone of Christian media. The creation, performance, significance, and even the definition of gospel music varies according to culture and social context. Gospel music is composed and performed for many purposes, including aesthetic pleasure, religious or ceremonial purposes, and as an entertainment product for the marketplace. Gospel music is characterized by dominant vocals and strong use of harmony with Christian lyrics. Gospel music can be traced to the early 17th century. Hymns and sacred songs were often repeated in a call and response fashion, heavily influenced by ancestral African music. Most of the churches relied on hand-clapping and foot-stomping as rhythmic accompaniment. Most of the singing was done a cappella.Jackson, Joyce Marie.
