One London critic's assessment of sensual singer-songwriter Sarah Jane Morris, who straddles rock, blues, jazz and soul with a goosebump-raising four octave range that rumbles from the heels of her size eight shoes to the tips of her flame-red mane.Famed for her association with the Communards in the mid-80s and infamous for a banned rendition of the classic Me and Mrs Jones, Sarah Jane Morris has always attracted as much attention for her politics as for her soul-driven, seismic voice. Ten solo albums later, pop stardom on the continent, and a diverse set of musical collaborations on record, film and stage, Morris continues to steer her unorthodox career to greater heights. This year marks Sarah Jane's 50th birthday and she is releasing a co-written and co-produced album of 13 songs entitled Where It Hurts. This is Sarah Jane's 11th album and the tracks are co-written with Dominic Miller and Martyn Barker, Billy Bragg and The Blokes. The Album was launched at Ronnie Scotts, London and Blue Note, Milan, in April 2009. The songs deal with the end of her 22 year marriage, the Burma Regime, Refugees, Climate Change and much more! Featuring Sarah Jane Morris and support from The Ronnie Scotts All Stars
