Christina - Bar Stool Prophet (2023)

The second album from this artist from Great Britain.

Christina Booth did the vocals here.

She had help from around ten other musicians who added drums, bass, guitars, keyboards, harmonica and backing vocals.

Christina Booth is the vocalist in Magenta, one of the best British prog rock bands in the last twenty-five years. 

She is still a member of Magenta. She has though released two solo-albums inbetween her work in Magenta and helping out other bands and artists on their albums.

Her solo-albums brings us a lot more vocals focused music and less progressive rock instrumental workouts. That is the difference between her solo albums and the Magenta albums.

The music is therefore more singer/songwriter than progressive rock. 

Her superb vocals is the dominating factor. The title track is a very good song though and perhaps her best song ever as a solo artist. 

The rest of the songs are good. The use of instruments are supporting the vocals and does a good job here.

This is a good album and well worth checking out. Christina's vocals is alone the reason to get this album.
