Lee Aaron - 'Diamond Baby'

By David Farrell

Lee Aaron – ‘Diamond Baby’ (Big Sister Records/Universal): This original song is the title track from Diamond Baby Blues, (born) Karen Lynn Greening’s latest album. Laced with screaming blues-tinged rockers, the LP includes originals and covers, such as Clint Ballard’s “Your No Good,” Rod Stewart’s “Hard Road,” Deep Purple’s “Mistreated” and Koko Taylor’s anthemic “I’m A Woman.”


If ever anyone deserved to hit the big top and earn back the years she has put in as a singer on the road, Aaron is it. She’s not mellowed an iota here, and packs in 12 tracks that scream, soar, moan and rip with a backing band that does a whole lot more than play for pay. Upcoming show dates include outdoor jamborees that include Germany’s Wacken metal fest and Sweden's hard-rock Skogsrojet event. Later in the year, she has outdoor shows in Ontario, Saskatchewan and Alberta.
