Demetria Taylor was born to sing the blues. The songs
on this album are a balance of traditional blues and modern
R & B, with some written by her family, some by fellow musicians
Mike Wheeler and Larry Williams, one by the venerable Magic
Sam, and two by Demetria herself. This second Delmark record
is a strong follow up to her Delmark debut, “Bad Girl”, and also
features the legendary Deitra Farr on one track. As Demetria
says, and we believe her: “IT’S MY TIME.”
