Koala Motel by Anne McCue (Messenger Records)Why arent more females guitar slingers? Anne McCue is, in addition to being a pretty good songwriter and singer. This sheila from the kangaroo-continent aint just a strummershe plays all the lead on this nearly guitar-driven, California-recorded CD. (Check her guitar work out on youtube. Shes got a live video there featuring her playing an electric from Australian guitar-maker Maton.) In fact, the title track is an instrumental, led by her Duane Eddy-sounding finger boarding.
