About this album

Blues License is a powerful showcase for Renee Geyer’s commanding vocal style, bringing blues feeling into a sharp late-1970s soul setting. Issued in 1979, the album draws on jazz, funk, blues and pop to frame a singer who could move easily from grit to vulnerability. Geyer’s interpretations give familiar material fresh force, with songs such as The Thrill Is Gone and Stormy Monday highlighting her control, phrasing and emotional directness. The record helped confirm her reputation as one of Australia’s great interpreters, equally at home with hard-edged groove and deeply felt blues expression.
