Editorial Reviews
From the Artist
When I finally quit running long enough to put down my own stories, of course I thought about all those records that possessed me. Those songs that promised love, longing, lust, strength, loyalty, freedom, escape. The ones that spoke of pain so sharp it hurt to listen, but you had to - again and again. Seems I was always drawn to the anti-heroes. The prisoners, the outlaws, the ones turned mean by mean lives: "I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die." How I miss Johnny Cash... And the loner hurtling through the night, pleading urgently with the darkness, "Mr. State Trooper, please don't stop me."And then there's soul. Ah! Deep Soul...music that marries joy and pain so passionately.

4 out of 5 stars What an amazing find!.......2004-08-03

What an amazing find! Picked up on a whim, I am thoroughly enjoying Soul HitchHiker's first CD. Karan Andrea's songs tell moving, thought-provoking stories and are packed with energy and emotion. You can tell, without even reading the liner notes, that she draws from a wide array of musical stylings - blues, gospel, rock - and blends them remarkably well. Her cover of I Wish it Would Rain is fun and funky; Liberation Radio is a great driving tune; and the title track, Desolation Hero, is simply haunting with her vocal arrangement and Jim Runfola's sax work.
