| “ | Just My Luck, the latest album from the Terry Quiett Band, is an album that proves that music is just as much about feeling and expression as it is technique and ability. While Quiett is obviously a very good musician from a technical standpoint (which is proven by his unbelievable vocals on “Close to You” and gutsy guitar solos on “Satisfied” and “Getting Through to Me”), most of the album is very simple, but it is also extremely genuine and heartfelt.The first thing that stands out about this album is that the band really does sound like a band.... | ” |
| “ | The album was recorded live in the Studio, along with Daniel Ruiz Estrada (piano, organ), Steve Harrish (bass), Stephen Morin (drums) and played on three songs with Joe Murphy (harmonica).With what damn casual relaxed, he and the band interpreted here well-known and lesser-known songs, already bordering the insolence.Where a Gary Moore recorded his "walking by myself" on "Still got the Blues" in a violent way, Campbelljohn Estrada leaves the introduction to the song Daniel Ruiz on piano.Also vocally he brings out more quite a bit from the song, as it is capable of Moore at all."Walking by myself" is equipped with a slide solo, but the lion's share is part of the fine strumming of Estrada.... | ” |

| “ | Excellent debut disc by this first-rate blues/rock axeslinger from Hawaii featuring 9 tracks of killer, straight up, Texas-inspired, string bendin' guitar mojo. Produced by seasoned bassist Mark Epstein (Johnny Winter / Joe Bonamassa) who also lays down the low-end bottom kool on the dynamic "First Offense" disc. Includes a bad-ass, axe-rippin' live version of "Rock Me Baby" (Bonus Track). Highly recommended to fans of SRV, Johnny Winter & Joe Bonamassa. | ” |
| “ | The "mountain cousin" of the Delta blues, Appalachian blues bears the stamp of a distinctive regional blend of European and African styles and sounds born at the cultural crossroads of railroad camps, mines, and rural settlements. Drawn from deep within the Folkways collection and from historic live recordings at the Smithsonian Folklife Festival, the music of bedrock blues performers such as Pink Anderson, Lesley Riddle, Etta Baker, John Jackson, and Doc Watson shines bright, claiming Appalachia as a key cradle of American acoustic blues. | ” |
| “ | Come Away with Me is the debut album of pianist and singer Norah Jones. Released by a predominantly jazz-based label and recorded with several jazz musicians, Come Away with Me has been noted by music writers for its acoustic pop style and incorporation of jazz, folk, soul, and country music elements. The album's critical and commercial success was a breakthrough for Jones in 2002, as it reached the top of the Billboard 200 chart and several jazz charts. The album also topped many critics' "albums of the year" lists and gathered major music awards in the process, including eight Grammy Awards. | ” |
| “ | The three pages of liner notes squished into eye-straining type that greet the purchaser of Jason Ricci and his band's highly anticipated follow-up to their roaring 2007 debut for the appropriately named Eclecto Groove label, boil down to this: it's a group effort with Ricci as only one component, and the members understand that their genre-mashing approach is not strictly blues, but they don't care. There's a lot more, of course, but one listen to this set that shifts from good-timey shuffles such as the sunshiny "Sweet Lovin'" to the jazz-rock fusion of the following "Holler for Craig Lawler" and the Latin influenced instrumental "Ptryptophan Pterodactyl" is enough to convince any newcomer that Ricci and co..... | ” |
| “ | Although he has been singing the blues, by his count, for 60 years, Big Pete Pearson did not start making records under his own name until the year he became eligible for Medicare. Since then, however, he seems to have been making up for lost time. And, when you're 72, why wait? On The Screamer, he is accompanied by his regular blues band, led by bassist and songwriter Terry Davis. The band churns out familiar blues tunes.... | ” |
| “ | The album was recorded as a tribute to the late great Ray Charles. 14 of the tracks are directly associated with him with the fifteenth track a song by Paul Jones and Tom McGuinness about the influence Ray Charles had on them and their careers in music. The lead vocals are by Paul Jones, Dave Kelly and Tom McGuinness and the feature of the album release is a large poster giving information about Ray Charles, The Blues Band and the 5 members of the Blues Band. | ” |
| “ | This concert captures Dire Straits front man Mark Knopfler performing some of his greatest hits live from the BBC studios, London in 1996, joined by drummer Chad Cromwell, along with guests Sonny Landreth and Jools Holland. Among the memorable selections from the set are "Walk of Life," "Darling Pretty," "Imelda," "Golden Heart," "Je Suis Desole," "Going Home," "A Night in Summer Long Ago" and many more. | ” |
| “ | Many of you are familiar with guitarist Shawn Starski from the series of memorable shows at Big Cities Lounge that he was involved with as a member of Jason Ricci's band, New Blood. Now Shawn gets the opportunity to step into the spotlight and he quickly shows that he is ready for the attention. Starski wrote all of the songs and handles most of the lead vocals, with his wife Elle taking over on two cuts. This is a very impressive first effort for Starski. He has delivered a strong batch of tunes and, no surprise, his guitar work is a consistent delight. A very well-done project that merits your attention. | ” |
| “ | Ordinarily, 20 years of making records puts you in a category with dinosaurs. However, since these are blues records we're talking about, it's more likely that Mike Goudreau & The Boppin' Blues Band could still be considered youths by the genres standards. The disc contains thirteen original tracks of what Mike calls "songs that range from swing to funk, from New Orleans to blues rock, with some southern soul and gospel thrown in for good measure". Special guest on this is Pierre Lacocque of the band Mississippi Heat from Chicago. | ” |
