Review Read My Lips / Lou Ann Barton:This album was released by the Antone's label in 1989, just after the election in which George Bush made "Read my lips" a catch phrase. Lou Ann Barton explained that she was happy to share the expression with the President because "I thought the American people should have a choice. " That's an easy one. The word "sultry" could have been coined for this Lone Star thrush. Backed by a crack crew of Austinites, Barton plunges into a savvy selection of roots and blues classics from the oeuvres of Slim Harpo, Lazy Lester, Irma Thomas, and Wanda Jackson. That's a tough crowd, but Barton keeps company with the best of 'em. -Steven Stolder.
