Femme Fatale, one of the best bands from the 80’s with a fearless female lead singer, are thrilled to be releasing their 1988 live show from Normal, IL, where they opened for the solid and amazing Cheap Trick. Additionally, there are some demos and a live cover of AC/DC’s It’s A Long Way To The Top.
The Femme Fatale Live performance shows a young and hungry band with lots of zeal, determination, and fire. They were hungry to connect with the audience and the audience enthusiastically responded back. As mentioned above, Femme Fatale was opening for Cheap Trick and the band studied Cheap Trick each and every night. They picked up some of the tricks of the trade from Cheap Trick.
Lorraine Lewis, Femme Fatale’s lead singer says about the sound of this show, “Jeff Dunn (who did sound for Cinderella, Bullet Boys, Jimmy Page, The Black Crowes), had a way of vocally mixing my voice; he had me front and center with a little reverb; I could play vocally with my range because of the fullness from the sound bouncing back at me.” Lorraine continues, “That’s why this show sounds so badass!”
There are six bonus tracks on the Live + Demo’s CD. Five are Demos and one is an AC/DC cover. The booklet is beautiful with high gloss pages, a page or two of pics, a 2-page essay from the sound engineer, a 2-page essay from Lorraine Lewis, and a sweet 2 pages of Lorraine’s perspective of each of the Demos/Live track(s).
The demos are for the songs Chains (which was in the movie Don’t Tell Mom The Babysitter is Dead), Heat The Fire, Falling In And Out Of Love, Rebel, Fortune, and Fame.
“Demos and Live” or “Live and Demos,” is being released on silver pressed CD, as a Fan Pack (autographed by Lorraine), and digitally. Finally, there is talk of releasing the 6 tracks from the back half of the album with 2 ultra-rare surprise tracks on vinyl.
