Milwaukee’s </b>hardest working bluesmen <b>Altered Five Blues Band</b>. This seventh
and latest release <i>Testifyin' </i>absolutely cooks.<i> </i>With five all-original
tracks of smokin’ blues, this EP is hitting the scene with quite an impact. With
<b>Jeff Taylor</b> on lead vocals, <b>Jeff Schroedl</b> on guitar, <b>Mark
Solveson</b> on bass, <b>Steve Huebler</b> on keys, and <b>Alan Arber</b> on
drums, <b>A5BB</b> plays the blues with feeling and conviction. The EP was
produced, mixed and mastered by Grammy award-winner <b>Tom Hambridge. </b>To
sweeten the pot, the super-talented, multi-award-winning <b>Jason Ricci</b> also
appears with harp in hand on three of the five tracks.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"> </span><i><span style="font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">Testifyin’</span></i><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"> kicks off with “Don’t Tell Me I
Can’t” delivered with a funky rhythm topped with a smokin’ guitar performance
from <b>Schroedl</b> and a sweet horn accompaniment from <span class="wixui-rich-texttext"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;">Max Abrams</span></b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;"> on saxophone and <b>Julio Diaz</b> on trumpet. They
roll into “Whiskey Got Me Married” a smoldering blues track that sounds great sung
by <b>Taylor’s</b> husky voice. <b>Ricci</b> totally wails on the harmonica and
sounds amazing. “Brand New Bone” is an outstanding track which seems to begin
in the Delta and wrap up in Chicago. With <b>Ricci </b>in the mix, this track is
a genuine winner. They slow it down to a gentle sway to sing about hard times
in “I’ve Got Scars to Prove It”. <b>Schroedl</b> plays every note with an
emotional approach. Testifyin’ wraps up in a lively positive light with “You Can’t
Win (If it Ain’t Within)”. It is upbeat, uplifting, and a sheer delight to
hear.</span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="wixui-rich-texttext"><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; padding: 0in;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Every song is a keeper on </span><b style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Altered Five Blues Band’s</b><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"> </span><i style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Testifyin’.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">I always have a great time
when Iowa’s favorite Celtic band <b>Wylde Nept</b> is onstage. If one can catch
them on or near St Patrick’s Day, that makes for even more of a special
occasion. With four albums under their belt, and over thirty years of playing live
shows, <b>Wylde Nept</b> has cultivated a faithful following of fans. Comprised
by <b>Westan James </b>(lead vocals/didgeridoo), <b>Steven James</b> (vocals/accordion),
<b>Jon Southwood</b> (guitars), <b>Wayne Twombley</b> (guitars) and <b>Lincoln Ginsberg</b>
(cajon), the band played to an absolutely packed house of folks eager to get their
Irish on. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">After a traditional community
shot of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Jameson’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> Irish Whiskey and their trademark shout of “Sligo!”,
the music commenced their three high-energy sets of music with “Haul Away Joe”
from their </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">Live in 3D</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> album. Like the whiskey behind the bar, all the
favorites generously began pouring out, such as “Whiskey in the Jar”, “Mountain
Dew”, “The Unicorn Song”, “Beer Beer Beer”, and “Johnny Jump Up”.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The
band was on fire and the fans were enthusiastic. It truly was a special evening
of music and celebration.</span></p><div style="border-bottom: solid windowtext 1.0pt; border: none; mso-border-bottom-alt: solid windowtext .75pt; mso-element: para-border-div; padding: 0in 0in 1.0pt 0in;">

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Rocky Athas</span></b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;"> is one of my all-time favorite blues-rock guitarists.
He’s played with musical legends <b>John Mayall</b>, <b>Glenn Hughes</b>, <b>Buddy
Miles</b> and <b>Black Oak Arkansas</b> and whether performing with someone
else or recording his own solo work, he always manages to amaze me. <i>Livin’ My
Best Life</i> is his latest release. It contains ten bodacious tracks of
high-octane music and I absolutely love it. He puts the ‘rock’ in blues-rock. With
<b>Rocky</b> on lead guitar, his son <b>Rocky Athas II</b> on bass guitar, <b>Walter
Watson</b> on drums and lead vocals, and his son <b>Jared Watson </b>on guitar
and vocals, the band could not be a tighter unit.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Title-track “Livin’ My Best
Life” gets the album rolling with a big juicy dose of Texas-style blues with a </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">ZZ
Top</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> vibe. Hearing </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Rocky</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> shred on this one makes for a damn good
listen. The fun ensues when they break out a smokin’ cover of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Don Nix’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “Black
Cat Moan”. I love how </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Rocky</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> coaxes the most amazing tones out of his
vintage 1969 </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Gibson Les Paul</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> Custom Black Beauty using a vintage </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Vox</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
Wah Wah to pay tribute to the late </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Jeff Beck</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on this track. From its
infectious riff to its poignant lyrics, “Dark Days” is a fantastic original spawned
from fatherly advice about remembering who we are regardless of the insanity
surrounding us. This is indeed a favorite. It made me happy to hear </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">John
Mayall</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> making a guest appearance on harmonica for the spectacular cover of “Long
Gray Mare” originally recorded by </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Fleetwood Mac</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> with </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Peter Green</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
in 1968. He can sure make that harp sing. The solo guitar </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Rocky</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> creates
is outstanding. For an unexpected treat, I love the cover of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Bob Dylan’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
“Watching the River Flow”. The original was produced by </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Leon Russell</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> and
recorded at </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Blues Rock Studio</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> in New York City at a session in 1971.
From the beginning couple of bars of “Walk in My Shadow”, I am immersed in the
groove created by </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Rocky II</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Walter Watson</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">. There is not a </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Free</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
cover that ever sounded better to me. I feel as if </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Rocky</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> is pouring
everything he has into this performance, and it sounds terrific. First recorded
by </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Freddie King</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> in 1971, the cover “Palace of the King” makes for a riveting
closing song. The twists and turns, </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Rocky</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> takes with his guitar keeps me
tightly glued to this track.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">With </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">Livin’ My Best Life</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;">,
</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Rocky Athas</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> wins me over once again.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This album certainly gets my highest recommendation. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The core of the band is an acoustic
duo comprised of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">John Brauchler</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on guitars, resonator, and banjo and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Paul
Gallucci</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on vocals, harmonica, percussion, and rhythm guitar. In 2022 they were
winners of the </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Boston Blues Society Blues Challenge</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> in the solo/duo
category.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">In 2023 they were winners of
the </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Granite State Blues Society Challenge</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> in the same category.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">In 2024, they entered the </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">International
Blues Challenge</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> in Memphis and made it to the Semi-Finals. Their backing band
consists of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Romeo Dubois</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on drums, </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Paul Kochanski</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on upright bass
and electric bass, </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Alizon Lissance</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on piano, organ, and accordion, </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Ilana
Katz Katz</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on fiddle, </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Holly Harris</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on percussion, </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Johnny Blue Horn</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
on trumpet, </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Mario Perrett</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on saxophone, with </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Robin Hathaway</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Tim
Curry</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on backing vocals.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">A blast of horns and a buttery
</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Stax</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">-fueled groove kicks the door in with a fist-full of funk on title-track
“Side Hustle”. I absolutely love this one. Visions of cypress trees wading in
the swampy waters of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Mississippi</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> come to my mind with each listen of “Blackfoot
Sun”. Powered by </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Brauchler </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">on resonator and, </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Gallucci </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">on harp, this
favorite is topped with a delectable fiddle performance by </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Katz.</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> I’m
drawn in to </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Kochanski’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> crawling, infectious bassline on “Dr. Shine”. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">It remarkably creates an ominous feeling of
impending doom in this brilliant blues song about escaping reality. “Soul to
Keep”, a slow-cooked blues duet with the lovely </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Robin Hathaway,</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> sweeps
me off my feet. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Brauchler </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">digs his
heels in deep and releases some gorgeous tones on this one. The smell of late
Sixties funk wafts through the air on the instrumental “Rib Grease”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">An intoxicating rhythm, blasts of brass, and a
groovy riff all adds up to a fabulous listen.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Loaded with musical twists
and turns, Side Hustle is terrific from beginning to end.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">I wouldn’t say that review
number 666 is a milestone, but the number does have some significance to some. In
order to establish the connection to this review, I will share this story. When
I first saw the cd cover featuring a pool table with red and green neon-lettered
windows behind, a wave of familiarity washed over. I knew I had played on at
that table before, I just wasn’t immediately sure where.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I then made it a mission to figure this out. The
letters on the windows in reverse order were the first three letters of a place
I have frequented occasionally on <b>Beale Street</b> in <b>Memphis, Tennessee</b>
called <b>The Absinthe Room</b>. Once I located photos of <b>The Absinthe Room</b>
on <b>Google</b>, I was able to verify that the cover photo was in fact taken
from the inside of that exact establishment. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This is where the synchronicity
begins. A piece of blues historical trivia I know about this place is that at one
time this was </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Hooks Brothers Photography Studio</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">. </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Hooks Brothers</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> took
the only known studio photo of the legendary blues player</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;"> Robert Johnson</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">.
And for those who don’t know, </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Johnson </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">allegedly sold his soul to the
devil at the crossroads to achieve his guitar mastery. And that’s the tie-in to
review #666.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I’ve been wanting to see </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Cedar
County Cobras</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> since reviewing their </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">Homesick Blues</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> album in
December. The opportunity finally made its way last night at </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">CSPS</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> in
Cedar Rapids, Iowa, in front of full house. That’s one of the most perfect
venues in town to experience live music. The </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Cedar County Cobras</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> are comprised
of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Tom Spielbauer</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> (guitar/vocals) and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">April Dirks</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> (upright bass/mandolin/vocals).
</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Cobras</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> played two amazing
sets of music, leaning heavily into delta blues. They kicked the show off with
an infectious cover of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">RL Burnside’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “Poor Black Mattie” followed immediately
after with </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Son House’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “Walkin’ Blues”. The first set also included </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Burnside’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
“Goin’ Down South” which </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Spielbauer </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">remarked he picked up while playing
at </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Red’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> in Clarksdale, Mississippi. With </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Dirks </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">on mandolin, they
gave a wonderful performance of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Bill Monroe’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “Under the Bridge” and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Mississippi
John Hurt’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “Poor Boy, Long Ways From Home”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">They</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;"> </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">started their
second set with “Utah” from their </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">Homesick Blues</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> album. </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Spielbauer</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
brought out his 1929 </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">National Steel</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> guitar to play for several songs of
which included a fantastic of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Muddy Waters’</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “Trouble No More”. He then
switched to his gold-top </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Les Paul</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> guitar to finish the show, hitting on
originals which included a couple of my favorites “Gimme Lightnin’” and “Homesick
Blues”. The show concluded with the mesmerizing spiritual “Get Right Church”.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">It was definitely a night of
music for the soul, and I enjoyed every note played. I already look forward to
seeing them again.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">It’s been eight years since </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Brothers
Brown</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> released their debut album </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">Dusty Road</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;">. Their follow-up record </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">Nowhere
Left to Go</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> recently landed and is very much worth the wait. Founded by </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Grammy</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">-nominated
keyboardist/synth-master </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Brother Paul Brown</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> of the </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Waterboys</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, and
two-time </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Grammy</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">-winning singer-songwriter/guitarist </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Paul Brown</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> (</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">George
Benson</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Al Jarreau</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Norman Brown</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">) the band also includes bassist/rhythm
guitarist/vocalist </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">David Santos</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> (Billy Joel, John Fogerty, Elton John) and
drummer/percussionist/guitarist </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Peter Young</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> (Loretta Lynn, The Burrito
Brothers). Together, they approach music much like </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Grateful Dead</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Little
Feat </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">pushing genre-specific boundaries of rock, blues funk, and country.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I’m captivated from the
beginning as the record rolls in on a super-melancholy wave of regret and loneliness
with “Wrong Side of Town”. The way the guitar notes seem to float in mid-air
with a </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Mark Knopfler</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">-ish way sounds amazing as they naturally join forces
with the keys. “Junior’s Back” puts me in a happy space with every listen. Once
the bridge hits, I am thrown into the </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Phish</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">-zone, and relish every bit
of its expansive and wonderful jam. The </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Brothers Brown </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">zero in on the Sixties
Chicago blues sound with “My Baby”. It hits the bullseye dead center. “Chitlin’
Pickin’” is a grateful instrumental which fills the sky with sunshine and
smiles. A driving rhythm slathered with grease and a cookin’ pulse pulls me
into the delectable blues-rock anthem “Black and Blue”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>

of working with </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Brother Paul Brown</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> stretches back for over twenty years,
culminating in four albums, three </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Blues Music Awards</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, a </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Grammy</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> nomination,

<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Nowhere Left to Go</span></i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> receives a high recommendation from me. It’s a
terrific album that just gets better with every listen. </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Loaded with a fistful of swagger,
</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Halfway to Number Nine</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, the debut album from </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Memphis & the Misfits
</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">has really caught my attention. Singer/songwriter/standup & electric bassist
</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Gary Davis</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> aka ‘</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Memphis</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">’ explains “Every song on this album is
based on real life events or inspirations…”. That explains why I can feel the DNA
of the </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Mississippi Delta</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> intertwined with every song. Born in the </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Delta</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
and based out of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Nashville, Tennessee</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, singer/songwriter/bassist </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Davis</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
aka “Memphis” is joined by his band </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">the Misfits </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">comprised of guitarist </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Ryan
Sise</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, drummer </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Dave Halstead</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, and additional guitarist </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Chris
Voorhees</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Davis </span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">pines for the slow-paced living in <b>Number Nine,
Arkansas</b> as he brings the listener into the album with his cooking title
track “Halfway to Number Nine”. Hearing <b>Sise’s </b>slide guitar on “Walk
That Line” is an absolute treat. I love the way he baptizes this song in swamp juice. The smoldering Texas blues of “Good Love”
hits with a solid <b>ZZ-Top/SRV</b>-inspired wallop. It sounds great. <b>Davis </b>conjures
up memories of good times with the swing-blues of “Ride these Mississippi
Backroads”. I’m rapidly hooked and reeled in to “Hongry”, caught in the net of its
infectious riff. I love when <b>Sise</b> lets loose and unleashes his
blues-soaked performance. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Memphis & the Misfits’</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> <i>Halfway to Number Nine</i> is an impressive eight
tracks of original delta roots music. I’m already looking forward to their next
album. </span></p><div style="text-align: center;">---</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggw7SqA7B575YeWB2QsydQvvPPYVWfIe-CLqC1PpXS-ZyQ7LJxZpz7VFoz3DNauPMjpYSxLSiOR1tF87IfWup79J7rAdvjQ0ZPEV3h50FNqjYUX5dLoaOeF76t-A_iC2MbMNC3m8QIaOmDDnUlQpJR799VhCCjdAMXIDzpp2uJXb3Qruht8UHyFBDLUUk/s1086/Memphis%20and%20Misfits%20-%20Gary%20Davis.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1086" data-original-width="660" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggw7SqA7B575YeWB2QsydQvvPPYVWfIe-CLqC1PpXS-ZyQ7LJxZpz7VFoz3DNauPMjpYSxLSiOR1tF87IfWup79J7rAdvjQ0ZPEV3h50FNqjYUX5dLoaOeF76t-A_iC2MbMNC3m8QIaOmDDnUlQpJR799VhCCjdAMXIDzpp2uJXb3Qruht8UHyFBDLUUk/s320/Memphis%20and%20Misfits%20-%20Gary%20Davis.jpg" width="194" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Gary Davis aka 'Memphis'</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast; mso-font-kerning: 14.0pt;">For more information about the artist, visit this </span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast; mso-font-kerning: 14.0pt;">website : </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><a href="https://memphisandthemisfits.com/">https://memphisandthemisfits.com/</a></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><p><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>PhillyCheezeBlueshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03130754812205492569noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6150741824559603588.post-65831639225975175622024-02-17T12:52:00.000-06:002024-02-17T12:52:05.243-06:00#662 : Philip Sayce - The Wolves Are Coming (PhillyCheezeBlues.Blogspot.com)<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEho70EKl1PFA2In1UuYSeovDYRJM8HgEyE2cP_rUsP7y1twxD761FXKi5jCKYMklsmvLghoBOGlOmT9GllxEl92vmaMi4VcZsdPbSLRCIGobf7hi8Lw1ce_2V4dR4kIqIwCAXZaP-3mZiebFcxr5aV8BXiBPjw32-PqZcaeiFdPaFh_kokS4tz1cyMxxQ0/s3000/Philip%20Sayse%20-%20The%20Wolves%20are%20Coming.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3000" data-original-width="3000" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEho70EKl1PFA2In1UuYSeovDYRJM8HgEyE2cP_rUsP7y1twxD761FXKi5jCKYMklsmvLghoBOGlOmT9GllxEl92vmaMi4VcZsdPbSLRCIGobf7hi8Lw1ce_2V4dR4kIqIwCAXZaP-3mZiebFcxr5aV8BXiBPjw32-PqZcaeiFdPaFh_kokS4tz1cyMxxQ0/s320/Philip%20Sayse%20-%20The%20Wolves%20are%20Coming.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /> <p></p><p><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-size: 11pt;">2024 – Forty Below

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">There’s a bright and fierce
energy surrounding the music of LA-based blues-rocker </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Philip Sayce</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The tours-of-duty he ventured with alongside legends
like </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Jeff Healy</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Melissa Etheridge</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> certainly pushed him to
obtain his 10,000+ hours of experience, elevating him to his current level of
greatness. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Loaded with explosive guitar
performances, and drizzled with his soulful vocals, </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Sayce’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> ninth and latest
album </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">The Wolves are Coming</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> is an extraordinary listen.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Sayce</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> smashes the gates open with a <b>Hendrix</b>-inspired
“Oh! That Bitches Brew”, leaving me gob smacked as I take in his unleashed arsenal
of atomic guitar licks. An infectious
rhythm draws me into the funky, smoking anthem of </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">“Babylon
is Burning”. I can’t help but feel his heart-felt
emotions poured all over slow ballad “It’s Over Now”. It is such a beautiful song. His covers of </span><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt;">John Lee
Hooker’s</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “This is Hip” and </span><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt;">Albert Collins'</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “The
Moon is Full” both bring smiles to my face too.
I dig the high-octane track “Black Moon”. Its pulsing rhythm and fuzzy guitar host a furious
punch and hits like the go-to songs I loved from </span><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt;">The White
Stripes</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">. </span><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt;">Sayce’s</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> vocal and guitar performance are absolutely amazing
on “Backstabber”. With the force of a
derecho, he tears the freaking roof off.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I highly recommend picking up </span><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt;">Philip Sayce’s</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “The Wolves Are Coming”. It’s superb from beginning to end. </span></p>

on bass, and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Lemar Carter</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on drums.</span></p>

a cooking rhythm, searing guitar, and rolling keys.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">It is then topped with a healthy serving of
sax from </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Paulie Cerra</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Little
Milton</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> cover absolutely swings and it sounds great.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The blues gets serious and real as </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Zito</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
tears it up on title track “Life is Hard”, originally by </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Fred James</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I’m left speechless as his guitar openly
wails from emotion.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I dig how he injects
a </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Chuck Berry</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> vibe into the classic </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Lefty Frizzell</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> song “No One
to Talk to (But the Blues)”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Wymans</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
gives the song a </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Little Richard</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">-treatment on keys for an energetic
accompaniment.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I love the cover of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Tinsley
Ellis’</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “Dying to do Wrong”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This
cowboy-blues track runs along an ominous set of rails and I am instantly drawn
in.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I can’t help but tear up when I hear
him take on the </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Guess Who</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> song “These Eyes”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The production on this track is superb,
featuring </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Jennifer Kumma</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Anna Spina</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on French horn, and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Jade
Macrae</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Dannielle Deandrea</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on background vocals.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">“Without Loving You”, a </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Zito</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">-original,
has an intriguing, progressive element which captivates me as it pulls me into
its crawling hypnotic rhythm.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">Life is
Hard</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> concludes with a solemn rendition of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Gary Davis’</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> 1960 gospel
blues spiritual “Death Don’t Have No Mercy”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">As the song approaches its finish, it wonderfully swells with the sound
of spirits and the ethers until total silence suddenly crashes.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Life is Hard</span></i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> is a blues album to be listened to in its

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Bernard Allison’s</span></b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;"> records have always included a song or two written by
his father the renowned blues recording artist <b>Luther Allison ( 1939 – 1997 )</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><i>Luther’s Blues</i>, the latest album from <b>Bernard</b>,
celebrates the music of his dad with a spectacular collection of twenty songs
on a two-disc set.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Each song was hand-picked
by <b>Bernard </b>and then remastered by <b>Pauler Acoustics</b>. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><i>Luther’s Blues</i> joins in the festivities
which celebrate <b>Ruf Records’</b> Thirtieth anniversary.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b>Ruf Records</b>, launched in 1994 by <b>Luther’s</b>
then European manager <b>Thomas Ruf</b>, recorded several albums with <b>Luther</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With <b>Bernard </b>at <b>Ruf Records</b> as
well, this album exhibits the deep connection and bond which runs strong between
the two families.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Guitar ablaze from the get-go,
“Hang On” blasts out the gates on the first track with </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Jimi-Hendrix</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
inspired deliciousness topped with </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Allison’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> demanding vocals.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I absolutely adore the funky, horn-infused “Too
Many Women”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The inescapable groove pulls
me right in to its masterful jam. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I love
how “Midnight Creeper” sneaks right in the door with its slow-swaying soul.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Allison</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> pours out some gut-wrenching early
Chicago blues on “Back Down South”. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The piano
accompaniment snugs right up with </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Bernard’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> smokin’ guitar playing.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I feel every note played and every word sung
as </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Allison </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">gets down with the slow-burner “You’re Gonna Need Me”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Allison</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> brings the album to closure
with the beautiful “Castle”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I adore the
soft </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Cat Stevens</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> vibe.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The song
is gorgeous.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Luther’s Blues</span></i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> is an excellent album and a wonderful tribute. </span></p>

she is joined by her husband </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Brandon Miller</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on guitars and mandolin, and
</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Go-Go Ray</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on drums.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Braunagel</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
appears on percussion, with </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Stevie Blacke</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on strings.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">My heart melts from the opening
words sung on “Right By Your Side”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Danielle’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
angelic vocals take top billing on this dreamy </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Sixties</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> Soul-inspired song.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Arriving on an ominous hill-country blues
riff, “Head Down Low” begins as a slow-cooker which </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Miller</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Go-Go</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
bring to a rapid, intense boil. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Danielle</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
generously pours an added fierceness on top vocally.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Her performance of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Trisha Yearwood’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “A
Lover is Forever” is so stunning and her voice is so beautiful, I cannot help
but think of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Amy Winehouse.</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">“Say You’ll
Stay” intrigues me as it navigates from a retro </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Fifties</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> pocket of soul into
an ethereal </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Beatles-</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">esque realm. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">It’s a very emotional song sung with a gorgeous
delivery.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">“Fools Gold” sinks its claws
in deep with an infectious rhythm, and beat-poet lyrics.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Damon Parker</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> adds a grand touch on synth,
as </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Miller</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> shines on slide guitar.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">There is no escape from the soul-wrenching “Who He Thinks You Are”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This tsunami of melancholia is a flawless gem
on track for song of the year.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The record
ends with a breath of hope on “Young Love on the Hill”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Played on mandolin, the song is a sweet
splash of Americana.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-size: 12pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 128;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Louisiana-based</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;"> GeminiiDragon</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
has been on a roll for the past couple of years. She released her first two albums in 2022,
both of which grabbed my attention in a most positive way. Her third and latest album, appropriately
titled </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">3</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, continues to keep me tuned-in and turned-on with eleven all-original
power-blues-rock tracks. </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Jessica
Harper</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> aka </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">GeminiiDragon</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> and guitarist </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Christian Simeon </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">share
writing credits on every song. The
rhythm section behind </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">GeminiiDragon</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Simeon </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">is comprised of bassist
</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Douglas Varnado Jr</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">., drummer </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Eric Sasser</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Malaysia Lewis</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
on vibraphone. The record also features
special appearances by </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Chad Rupp</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on harmonica and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">TJ Wong</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on guitar.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">An infectious opening riff on
“I Wanna Know” effortlessly pulls me right in to a powerful guitar-laced anthem
where the chords seem to hang in mid-air.
In an amazing way, it creates a magical wave of sound for <b>GeminiiDragon’s</b>
vocals to surf atop. I love how <b>Simeon</b>
turns the energy up to eleven on the front-end of “Clowns” as he delivers a <b>Collective
Soul</b>-friendly axe-groove. <b>GeminiiDragon
</b>dives into <b>Tina Turner</b> mode with her voice as it melds with the <b>Simeon’s</b>
sonic tones on “Wasted Time”. “Cherokee”
draws me in with its pop-punk center and southern-rock- flavored musical snippets. The Seventies rock foundation <b>Simeon</b>
pours for “A Fool For You” makes for a solid as hell track. The song momentarily takes a dip into a
pocket of psychedelia and fills me with delight. “</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Last Train to Thibodaux”
is a track I listen to repeatedly. Its ethereal
melody brings the blues into the world of emo.
It sounds new and sounds great.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">GeminiiDragon’s
3 is an album that has tremendous appeal and hits all the right notes. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I like this one a lot.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>

the Sun</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> has been on my radar since reviewing their previous album </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">A
Night at the Rhythm Room</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;">.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Their
latest album </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">Enchantment </i><span style="font-size: 12pt;">hits heavy with a fistful of hard-driving original
songs peppered with psychedelia, and I love every bit of it.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Broken into two parts : “Enchantment Pt 1”
and “Enchantment Pt 2”, the record is definitely album-oriented.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I find a fabulous musical-chemistry among the
members of the band : singer </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Alyssa Swartz</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, guitarist </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Brandon Teskey
(</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">also on bass, sitar and vocals)</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">,</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> and drummer </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Chris Tex</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">They sound terrific together.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I dig the funky groove that kicks
off “Dancing on the Floor”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Swartz’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
voice sounds wonderful, as she belts out the lyrics in a fearless </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Pat Benatar</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">-way.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The guitar solo from </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Teskey</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> is masterfully
attention-grabbing.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The combination of the
two makes for an epic song.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Another
solid dose of rock ‘n roll ensures on “Dragon Below” as it swiftly sweeps me
off my feet with its opening riff.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">It’s
wonderous in the way the song takes ethereal dips embedded within its guitar-blazing
glory.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Whipping out a thunderous bass-line
and a cosmic guitar attack,</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;"> Teskey</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> injects a bluesy </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Pink Floyd</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">-ish
vibe into the only cover song on the album “Hound Dog“.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Nothing is held back vocal-wise as </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Swartz</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
digs deep for her performance of this </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Big Mama Thornton</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> hit.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">“Seek the Sunshine” is a phenomenal serving
of blues and sits among my favorites.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Soulful
vocal growls and tuneful guitar licks make “Groovin” a sure-fire standout piece
of original blues too.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">“Ghost in the
Prayer” brings the record to its end with a pulsing riff, angelic singing, and a
trippy guitar performance, making for a cool-as-hell finale.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Until the Sun </span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">is one of the more unique original blues-rock bands on
the scene today and <i>Enchantment</i> is an album which I highly recommend. </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">When </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Patti Parks</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> sings,
her voice pulls me right in to the song. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I love to hear her sing.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Her latest album </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">Come Sing With Me</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> is
a wonderful album of soul blues.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Muti-</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Blues
Music Award</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> recipient </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Johnny Rawls</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> produces, arranges horns, and
appears on several songs contributing his smooth vocal and guitar
stylings.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">With </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Rawls</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> at the
helm, the album surely has a vintage southern charm.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The recording also features guests </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Anthony
Geraci</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on piano, and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Richard Rosenblatt</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on harmonica.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Drummer </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Hugh Arther</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> and
bassist </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Tony Cammilleri</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> lay down a buttery groove for </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Parks</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Rawls’</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
duet “I’m in Love With You Baby”. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Topped
off with a nice blast of horns, and a </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Steve Cropper</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">-ish guitar
performance from </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Aaron Flynt</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, the song shines bright and is perfectly
fitted for an opening track.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">From the opening
sounds of the swirling organ played by </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Aaron Blackmon</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, I’m grooving to “Sing
Around the World”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">It is a feel-good
anthem I can’t help but smile to.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Flynt</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">,</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">
</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">along with </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Guy Nirelli </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">on organ, create a sort of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Stevie Ray Vaughan</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
meets </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Ray Manzarek</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> vibe for “I’m Sorry”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Parks</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> sings this Texas blues masterpiece with an unbridled fearlessness
and she sounds terrific.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The sultry
double-entendres </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Parks </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">unleashes on “Hamburger Man” add spice to an
already hot bowl of slow simmering blues. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I love the way the heavy bassline and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Rosenblatt’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
harp accompaniment fit tightly in with </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Flynt’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> smokin’ guitar. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Parks’</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> voice sounds amazing on “Why”. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Her classic soul-singer approach injects a
sense of timelessness into the song.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">When
</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Parks </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Rawls</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> join forces as a duet on </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Rawls’</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “How Much
Longer”, the stars are perfectly aligned. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I love the bursts of sax that pepper their smooth-as-silk
performance.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Patti Parks’</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> <i>Come Sing With Me</i> featuring <b>Johnny Rawls</b>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Robert Connely Farr</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> continues to intrigue me with his dark, ominous brand
of blues.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><i>Pandora Sessions</i>, his eleventh
release, is dedicated to the memory of <b>Mississippi </b>bluesman <b>RL. Boyce</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b>Farr</b> originally from <b>Bolton,
Mississippi</b>, now resides in <b>Vancouver, Canada</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>His music is deeply rooted in the <b>Bentonia,
Mississippi</b> style of blues and wonderfully honors his mentors <b>Boyce</b>,
and <i>Grammy Nominee</i> <b>Jimmy “Duck” Holmes</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>According to <b>Farr</b>, this record is
modeled after gigs in which he played along with <b>Boyce</b> and <b>Holmes</b>
in <b>Bentonia</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They used vintage
microphones and whatever was at hand. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Produced by <b>Jay Bundy Johnson </b>and
written by <b>Farr</b>, <i>Pandora Sessions</i> has an incredible way of transporting
the listener through a magical portal to their own personal juke joint.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The subject of inevitable mortality
takes center stage in “Everybody’s Dyin’” as </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Farr’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> lyrics ride the wave
of a hypnotic groove.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The topic returns
with an internal perspective on “Getting Tired of Getting Old”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The song has a simmering, swampy delivery and
connects with a dire and on-point punch.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Farr </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">creates a mysterious atmosphere when he sings about the “Night
Train”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">An intoxicating rhythm which vibrates
right down to the bone follows with “Take it Slow”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The song has me in a quandary, trying to
decipher what happened in </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Jackson</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Natchez Town</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The weight of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Farr’s </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">voice is heavy with
sadness as he sings about wanting to go home in “Oh Lord”. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This one really taps into my empathetic
core.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Farr’s</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> music is created with the spark of a musical linage
of generations of bluesmen, and it shows in both his writing and performances. <i>Pandora Sessions</i> is pure unadulterated blues
at its best. </span></p>

Suiter</b>, <b>John Ginty</b>, <b>Bruce Katz</b>) stole my heart from the first listen. <b>Bennett</b>, an original member of <b>Levon Helm's</b> <i>Midnight Rambles</i> in <b>Woodstock, New York</b>, began writing this record on Easter Sunday 2020 as a response to the beginning days of the Coronavirus outbreak. That day, he wrote, recorded, and posted a video for his new song “Easter Morning Melody” on <b>Facebook</b>. The positive response he received encouraged him to keep moving forward, spawning the <i>Sunday Morning Sessions </i>which he continues producing today. This record is a tribute to those Sunday sessions and to the listeners who tune in.

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Cedar County Cobras</span></b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">, a blues and roots duo from <b>Iowa</b> has grabbed
my full attention with their new album <i>Homesick Blues</i>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Comprised by <b>Tom Spielbauer</b> and <b>April
Dirks</b>, the <b>Cedar County Cobras</b> were formed in 2014 and have logged hundreds
of shows across the state and Midwest. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In 2022, <b>Spielbauer</b> won the <b>Iowa
Blues Challenge </b>for solo artists, securing a spot at the 2023 <b>International
Blues Challenge</b> in Memphis, Tennessee where he placed as a
semi-finalist.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The duo’s songs are
soaked with a pre-war blues essence and are wonderfully performed with <b>Spielbauer</b>
on guitar and foot-drum and <b>Dirks</b> on mandolin and upright bass.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Dirks’</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> mandolin beautifully pairs with the <b>Nashville</b>-twang
of <b>Spielbauer’s </b>guitar on the infectious “Country Records”. I love the slide guitar on the rambling drinking
song “Gimmie Lightnin’”. There is a line in the song about seeing <b>Cedell
Davis</b> at <b>Gabe’s Oasis </b>in <b>Iowa City</b>, and it hits me with a
wave of jealousy with every listen. I
would have loved to be there. When they
take on <b>Muddy Waters’</b> “Trouble No More”, they positively make it their
own. It is a wonderful re-engineering of
the song and has a strong Delta Blues presence.
They also put a lot of love and attention into their cover of <b>Son House’s</b>
“Walkin Blues”. <b>Spielbauer</b> sets a
quite ominous mood on his original “Voodoo Doll”. This song about a witchy retribution is a
magically unsettling and I love it. My
favorite track is their cover of <b>Jessie Mae Hemphill’s</b> “Shake it Right”. This is North Mississippi Hill-Country Blues
at its best. <b>Dirks</b> on stand-up
bass gives the song an extra punch to its hypnotic rhythm behind <b>Spielbauer’s</b>
resonator guitar.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Cedar County Cobras’</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> <i>Homesick Blues</i> is a tasty dose of real-deal
blues. It is a fantastic recording through
and through. </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">I want to make <b>PhillyCheeze’s
Rock & Blues Review</b> <i><b>#650 </b></i>special and focus on my local blues scene in a
very specific way.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s a rare occasion
to be able to brag about the abundant amount of blues Iowa has to offer and this
is a perfect time to shine a light on it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>If you find yourself in <b>Cedar Rapids, Iowa</b> on a Thursday night
and feel the urge to hear some blues in an authentic juke joint environment, navigate
yourself to <b>JM O’Malley’s</b> in the Irish District of town.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For over twenty-five years, every Thursday
evening, Iowa Blues Hall-of Famer <b>Tom ‘T-Bone’ Giblin</b> (Lonnie Brooks,
Elvin Bishop, The Dynatones) has led a legendary jam at this Irish bar on keys
and organ.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The magic of these
much-adored jams is fabulously captured on CD and features two tracks apiece
from seven different acts who played <b>O’Malley’s</b> in 2023. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Each track features <b>Giblin </b>at the helm
of the keys. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The lineup consists of <b>Charlie
Morgan and the Bone Crushers</b>, Iowa Blues Hall-of-Famer and International
Blues Challenge winner in three categories <b>Kevin Burt</b>, <b>Matt Panek</b>
(The Electric Koolaid Trio), <b>D’Dog and the B’Bits</b> featuring Iowa Blues
Hall-of-Famer and Iowa Rock n Roll Hall-of-Famer <b>Dennis McMurrin</b>, Iowa
Blues Hall-of-Famer and Iowa Rock n Roll Hall-of-Famer <b>Craig Erickson</b>, Iowa
Blues Hall-of-Famer and Iowa Rock n Roll Hall-of-Famer <b>Bryce Janey</b>, and <b>Merrill
Miller</b> (Shakey Feet). <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The album kicks off with a fabulous
Chicago-style blues jam with </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Charlie Morgan and the Bone Crushers</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on “Two
Trains Runnin’”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Giblin </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">tears it
up on keys and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Dave Bader</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> lays down a blues-soaked bassline for </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Morgan</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
as he fearlessly belts out the vocals and rips it up on guitar.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Local music legend </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Dennis McMurrin,</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
who cut an album with T</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">he Tower of Power</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> in 1986, leads </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">D’Dog and the
B’Bits</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> through a funky cover of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Jr. Walker’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “Cleo’s Back”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Performed with another Iowa Blues Hall-of-Famer
bassist </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Dan Johnson</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, and drummer </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Butch O’Connell</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, the track is a downright
terrific.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I love that </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Kevin Burt</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
was on this recording.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I still remember
the first time seeing him and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">The Blues Instigators</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, back in 1993
shortly after I moved to Iowa.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">His band was
one I would often see over the years.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Burt</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
performs his iconic original “Real Love” as well as a soulful, funky cover of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Bill
Withers’</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> 1972 classic “Who is He (and What is He to You)?”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">When </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Bryce Janey</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> brings his guitar to
the stage for a couple of his originals “Drinking Dirty Water” and “Practice
What You Preach”, it makes for a high-voltage dose of guitar-centric blues.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">It’s always a pleasure to hear this man play.
</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Matt Panek</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> aka “Matty Koolaid”
brings the Big Joe Turner classic “Honey Hush” to a sear, and it sounds great. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Craig Erickson</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, a hands-down all-time
favorite, appears with his band </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Sky Train</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> featuring </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">John Hall</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on
bass and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Rob Haskell</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on drums for an extraordinary performance of “Mojo
in Memphis” from his 2015 album </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">Sky Train Galaxy.</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Merrill Miller</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, who I first heard many
years ago play as a duo with </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Bryce Janey</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, now fronts his own band </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Shakey
Feet</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, comprised of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Butch O’Connell</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on drums and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Troy Harper</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
on bass. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Their cover of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Muddy Waters’</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
“Got My Mojo Workin’” surely makes me smile.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This is what the blues is all about.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><i>JM O’Malley’s 25 Yrs of Live
Music </i>is a splendid recording which captures the immense musical talent we have in the I-380 Corridor. I highly recommend this one, so make a stop out at <b>JM O'Malley's</b> and buy a copy.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Memphis Calling</span></i><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, the new album from British blues singer <b>Emma
Wilson</b>, puts a smile on my face with every listen.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b>Wilson</b>, who was awarded <i>Emerging Blues
Artist of the Year</i> at the <b>UK Blues Awards</b> in 2022 for her debut
album <i>Wish Her Well</i>, captures the pure essence of the Memphis sound.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Recorded at <b>Sam Phillips Recording Studio</b>,
using the original <b>STAX</b> recording console, and a bullpen of Memphis musicians,
this record is nothing less than extraordinary with <b>Wilson’s </b>soulful,
buttery vocals pouring freely over every note.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Backing <b>Wilson</b> on this release is <b>Charlie Hodges</b> ( <b>Hi Rhythm
Section</b>) on Hammond organ, <b>Archie “Hubbie” Turner</b> (<b>Hi Rhythm Section</b>)
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>on electric piano, Wurlitzer, and
acoustic piano, <b>Joe Restivo</b> (<b>The Bo Keys</b>) on guitar, <b>Leroy
Hodges</b> (<b>Hi Rhythm Section</b>) on bass guitar, <b>Steve Potts</b> (<b>Booker
T & the MGs</b>, <b>Gregg Allman Band</b>) on drums, <b>Kirk Smothers</b> (<b>The
Bo Keys</b>, <b>Cyndi Lauper</b>) on tenor and baritone sax, Marc Franklin (<b>The
Bo Keys</b>, <b>Cyndi Lauper</b>) on trumpet, and <b>Scott Bomar</b> on
tambourine. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Wilson </span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">jump-starts the record with the energy of <b>Aretha
Franklin</b> in a fantastic original called “Small World”. Guided by a funky rhythm, and topped with the
sweet sound of horns, the track is deliciously soulful. Her cover of the <b>Steve Cropper</b> and <b>Eddie
Floyd</b>-penned “Water” recorded by <b>Albert King</b> taps right into my heart
and soul. <b>Don Bryant</b> appears as
guest vocalist on “What Kind of Love”.
The inescapable groove pulls me right in. “Drug” another <b>Wilson</b>-penned original has
an <b>Amy Winehouse</b> vibe, and I dig it a lot. With a slight twist, the <b>Muddy Waters</b> 1954
hit “Hoochi Coochie Man” becomes the alluring “Hoochie Coochie Mama”. <b>Restivo’s</b> guitar performance is on point,
and sounds wonderful sidled up with <b>Wilson’s </b>sultry vocals. All the stops are pulled when she closes the
record with a stellar performance of <b>Buddy Johnson’s</b> “Since I Fell For
You”. It’s an absolutely beautiful song.
</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Emma Wilson’s</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> <i>Memphis Calling</i> is a spectacular recording. It is going to land as one of my top favorites
of the year. </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Sue Foley’s</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> latest release <i>Live in Austin Vol. 1</i> sunk its teeth
into my heart quite quickly. The 2020 <b>Blues
Music Award</b> recipient of the <i>Koko Taylor Award</i> category plays
through a mix of originals and covers on her new album, produced by <b>Mike
Flanigin.</b> The record nicely captures
the artist her home-turf with a sold-out show at Austin, Texas’ <b>Continental
Club</b>. With <b>Foley </b>on guitar
and vocals, her band consists of bassist <b>Jon Penner</b>, drummer <b>Corey
Keller</b>, guitarist <b>Derek O’Brian</b>, <b>Angela Miller</b> on background
vocals and tambourine, and <b>Lauren Cervantes</b> on background vocals.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The hounds are released as</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">
Foley t</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">ears through the title track of her 2006 album “New Used Car”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">She absolutely cooks, and her performance puts
me right in the zone.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The opening licks
of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Howlin’ Wolf’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “Howling For My Darlin’” make my ears perk up even
more. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Foley’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> dreamy vocals add a
whole new dimension to this song as she serves up a searing-hot platter of
blues guitar.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The instrumental “Hooked
on Love (AKA Lucky Lou)” from her 1992 </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">Young Girl Blues</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> album is exquisitely
performed and played with finesse. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I dig
</span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Keller’s </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">rumba beat and how it compliments </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Foleys </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">guitar mastery.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I love her stunning cover of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Bob Dylan’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
“Positively 4</span><sup>th</sup><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> Street”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">She
keeps it fresh and does not stray far from </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Dylan’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> vocal cadence.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Foley </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">blows the dust off of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Memphis
Minnie’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> 1941 classic “Me and my Chauffeur Blues” for a shindig of a blues
jamboree. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">For the closer, it was an
unexpected treat to hear her break out a very deep cut from </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Cheap Trick</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “High
Roller”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Foley</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> truly rocked the
house on this one.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Sue Foley’s </span></b><i><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Live in Austin – Vol 1</span></i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> gets a high recommendation from me. The album kept me glued to her music from
start to finish. I just hope there is
not much of a wait-time for <i>Vol. 2</i> to be released. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">---</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-align: justify;"> </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Forming in </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Boston</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
around forty years ago as </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">11<sup>th</sup> Hour Blues Band</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, guitarist </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Paul
Lenart</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, bassist </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Bill “Coach” Mather</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, drummer </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Chuck Purro</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, and
harmonicist </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Richard “Rosy” Rosenblatt </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">played the local club and bar scene
there before cutting their first album </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">Hot Time in the City</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> in 1985.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Now known as </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">11 Guys Quartet</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, their
latest album</span><i style="font-size: 12pt;"> 11 x 11</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> has grabbed my attention in a huge way.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This follow-up album to their critically acclaimed
2020 release </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">Small Blues and Grooves</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, packs eleven original tracks into
one disc for a fantastic blues listening experience.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The record kicks in with a
truck load of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Lenart’s </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">swampified guitar topped with an explosion of </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Rosenblatt’s</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
blues-soaked harmonica, making “Lightning Road” a riveting instrumental opener.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The powerful juju of “Black Cat Bone” is generously
received as it follows up next.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This bodacious
track is indeed a favorite. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">In a sort of
‘House of the Rising Sun’ fashion, </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">11 Guys Quartet</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> masterfully construct
an amazing anthem called “Blues Beyond Midnight”.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Lenart </b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">and </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Rosy</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> dig deep as their
licks are wonderfully traded back and forth. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Slathered with slide, “Possum Blues” steals my
heart with its carefree and country-fried sound.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Each track on this album is
an instrumental except for two songs: “Drivin’ a Fast Car” featuring </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Purro</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
on vocals and “He Ain’t Got You” featuring </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Lenart</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> on vocals.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">“Drivin’ a Fast Car” hits the scene with the velocity
of a moonshine runner barreling down the road at breakneck speed. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The band plays this tight and with an amazing
finesse.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">“He Ain’t Got You” is a searing
new twist on the classic </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">Jimmy Reed</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> song "I Ain't Got You".</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> The</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> intoxicating groove pulls me right in.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I enjoy every note played as </span><b style="font-size: 12pt;">11
Guys Quartet</b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> showcase their abundant talent and collective experience. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><i style="font-size: 12pt;">11 x 11</i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> surely sits among my favorite albums
of the year. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>
