3 . Big Man 4:03 – Man , track three and my mind is already blown . If the hypnotic groove doesn ’ t infect you , then the vocals surely will . Man , you can just feel the power of the notes . Good God , Sheba has a killer voice . I want to party with the Queen .
4 . Real Good Woman 6:22 – This is a traditional story telling blues jam that can easily be extended indefinitely . Sheba tells us that she is armed and dangerous and that her problem is she just cannot find a good man . I am enjoying listening to the qualities she considers necessary to be classified as a good man . Of course , as nice as the vocals are , it is also nice to hear that Sheba has a collection of Monsters who all have her back . This band is comprised of monster players and they do not turn the intensity down for a moment . Oh , the volume may fluctuate , but the intensity is at a constant 11 .
5 . Ms . Good-n-Plenty 3:32 – Sheba is rather proudly sharing some very intimate details of her relationship with her domestic partner . ( Trying to keep the description clean as I do not know exactly where this review will end up , but it could be noted that Sheba has an exceptional level

He just pops in and out from the side and instantly has my attention . I must see this band live !
8 . Dance Jump Shout 3:17 – Fast tempo with horns and guitars all making statements while the rhythm section lays down a very quick , very intense rhythm . The guitar can ’ t take it anymore and busts out into a massive jam . Sheba comes back in with some commanding vocals and the guitar is right there at the end of each phrase , ready to shoot a bolt of lightning . WOW !
9 . Good Good Lovin 6:01 – Sheba is back , talking about Rocking and Rolling and Riding a Pony … as the title suggests Sheba wants some good good lovin ’. Musically , all the elements of
