▓▓ ▓▓
██ Nearly all of Fiona Boyes' previous reviews have ██
██ acknowledged that she is an exceptional female blues ██
██ guitarist, but it's time to lay the gender qualifier to ██
██ rest: Fiona Boyes is an exceptional blues guitarist, period, ██
██ as well as an exceptional vocalist and songwriter. Having ██
██ released several albums in her native Australia, both with ██
██ her '90s band, the Mojos, and under her own name ù most ██
██ recently a double-live set recorded in Atlanta ù Boyes ██
██ finally tried her luck in the market that has inspired her ██
██ music. Lucky 13 is her first American release, and it's one ██
██ wicked slab of blues. Most of Boyes' previous recordings ██
██ have showcased her acoustic guitar work, but from the first ██
██ "Smokestack Lightning"-like notes of Lucky 13's opener, ██
██ "Chicken Wants Corn," Boyes lets it be known that this time ██
██ she's cranking up the volume. Her electric guitar playing ██
██ throughout displays both enormous skill and a true empathy ██
██ with the American roots music she's adapted as her own. With ██
██ a particular allegiance to the Chicago and New Orleans ██
██ styles, and nods to Texas, Memphis, and Mississippi, Boyes' ██
██ picking can be alternately nasty/dirty or smooth/sweet, but ██
██ regardless of the subgenre, she's consistently economical, ██
██ tasteful, and imaginative, bringing to each tune crisp, ██
██ melodic lines and a sense of history; there's no question ██
██ that Boyes has spent many an hour studying the nuances of ██
██ the form. That isn't to suggest that this is an exercise in ██
██ retro, though: Boyes perfectly bridges modernity with ██
██ classicism. Ten of the album's 13 tracks were composed by ██
██ the artist, who keeps her sound rooted in the present while ██
██ aesthetically transporting herself to Chicago's South Side ██
██ of the mid-20th century to hang with Muddy Waters and ██
██ Howlin' Wolf, and then stepping further back to pay a visit ██
██ to Memphis Minnie down in Louisiana. For the occasion of her ██
██ U.S. debut, Boyes took advantage of the local talent, ██
██ augmenting her core group the Fortune Tellers with Bob ██
██ Margolin, one of Waters' former guitarists; the Texan ██
██ pianist Marcia Ball; saxman Mark "Kaz" Kazanoff; and others. ██
██ But while her guests lend to the effort their considerable ██
██ experience on the American blues scene, the spotlight is ██
██ never off of Boyes, who impresses on each track with her ██
██ virtuosic guitaristry and versatile vocalizing. She likes to ██
██ keep the listener guessing, too: "Rockabilly on the Radio," ██
██ a screaming, twanging '50s-style rocker, the tender ballad ██
██ "Stranger in Your Eyes," and the jump blues "Big Bigger ██
██ Biggest" may all at first seem anomalies, but they fit ██
██ neatly into the plan. And although the album's focus is her ██
██ electric playing, Boyes doesn't neglect her acoustic ██
██ fingerpicking on Lucky 13. "Pigmeat Lover," one of a handful ██
██ of tracks spotlighting longtime Asleep at the Wheel pianist ██
██ Floyd Domino, recalls Maria Muldaur's early solo albums, ██
██ while the cover of Lillian McMurry's "Red Hot Kisses," a ██
██ duet with Margolin, is country-blues at its finest. Fiona ██
██ Boyes may be from Down Under, but with albums this good ██
██ she'll be on top of all of the blues polls before long. ██
