"'Shine Bright' is an album that sure lives up to its name, with Texan, Louisiana-raised, keyboard wizard Marcia Ball delivering twelve tracks packed to exploding with her raw, raucous and rollicking boogie-woogie chops and powerful voice. Ball is always a pleasure, with each successive release simply cementing her position at the top of the good-fun-feeling blues end of the spectrum. This is music with edge, clever lyricism and an excellent bunch of backing musicians. Irresistible, toe-tapping stuff that positively roars along firing on all cylinders".
