A bit more complicated and expansive sound from her previous two albums, To Bring You My Love is a brooding, primitive blues album featuring a vocalist that whispers, growls, and howls. There is a dirty, muddy aspect to many of the songs. The guitars are filled with fuzz, the lyrics are delivered in a primal manner and several songs feature the vocals a bit over-modulated, and the rhythm sounds like bigfoot is trudging through the swamp.

While I wouldn't say that Rid of Me, which preceded this album, rocks more...but this album doesn't seem really invite me to scream and shout along with it. I find myself wanting to listen to PJ use her voice than sing along with her. I used to own this album. I've never disliked it, but I traded To Bring You My Love in years ago to a record shop because I just never compelled to pull it out and give it a listen.

Songs I knew I liked: I remembered liking "Working for the Man," "Long Snake Moan" (such a great song), the single "Down By the Water," and "Send His Love to Me"

Songs I didn't know but now like: I had forgotten about "C'mon Billy"

Songs I can go the rest of my life without hearing again: None in particular
