This review requires a disclaimer up front: the reviewer, a "woman of a certain age," was raised with Sophie Tucker on THE Ed Sullivan SHOW and with Sophie Tucker albums in her family's records, and when home alone as a young girl she would put on Sophie Tucker and mime her routines. This probably accounts for her regular counseling sessions now. But yes, this is written by someone raised on the last of the red hot mamas.

Performer, actress, compelling storyteller Sandra Bernhard is going back on the road in 2024 with her "Easy Listening" live extravaganza. Ride along with Sandy as she takes you on a tour of her musical influences. From the first time she heard The Supremes on AM radio on a snowy night in Flint, Michigan, to her first concert, Simon and Garfunkel… these are the songs you love and remember. The strumming guitars, the singalongs… from Peter Paul & Mary to the Stones – with Slaughter On Tenth Avenue playing on the Fisher HiFi (“Absolutely no one can touch this, do you hear me!” screamed her father) – as Ravel & Debussy drifted up from the basement where her mother just wanted to take a small break. The sounds of home that we all remember… jazz from your brother's bedroom, your sister shouting along to Janis as she plotted her escape. The cross-country move to Arizona opened new musical vistas, as the ‘60s gave way to the ‘70s and the women of the era acted as our spiritual guides… Tina, Joni, Dusty, Aretha, Laura, Carole… Climb into the Pontiac station wagon and get ready to hit the road.
