SASSY MAMA / I'M A GOOD WOMAN / ROCK ME BABY / WHEN LOVE COMES
"Containing only 4 songs, this disc may be teaser for a forthcoming album promising good things to come. BB displays her solid vocal talents on a cover of Big Mama Thornton's "Sassy Mama" and a slow version of "Rock Me Baby"!"
- Peter R. Aschoff/LIVING BLUES MAGAZINE, U.S.A. 1996
"Marla BB is an old style blues belter in the tradition of Etta James. But, the real treat is "When Love Comes", a BB original that aches with a longing and passion all real good blues records will. The backing band is also top notch."
- Kenneth Miller/THE ISLAND EAR, New York 1996
"NY-based chanteuse grabs ahold of four tunes on this mini-album and won't let go!"
- Gary Erwin/LONG DISTANCE CALL, South Carolina 1996
A highly seasoned act, Marla BB tours internationally as well as receives airplay trans-continentally!
"Marla BB is a New York blues lady who I predict has the talent to take the world-wide blues scene by storm with a superb voice that ranges form an orgasmic whisper to a full throated roar often over the space of just a few syllables!"
- Mick Rainsford/BLUES & RHYTHM MAGAZINE, England, Fall 1994
"Nuances of her Russian-Hebrew origins can be felt in her quite unusual approach to the blues. One listener called to remark on the "acid soulfulness" of Marla BB."
- Edoardo "Catfish" Fassio/FLASH RADIO 97.6, Italy, 1994-95 (host of the longest running Blues show in Europe)
