Margo Timmins is the vocalist of this mostly-Timmins ensemble, and her voice is the distinguishing characteristic of the group; it's smoky, moody, bluesy, evocative... and electric guitar is the prevailing instrumentation, making for a heady ambiance. Includes the loneliest version of I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry ever recorded; and a cover of Lou Reed's Sweet Jane. Recorded live in Toronto, 1988.
