Listener Reviews & Comments
Debbie Davies has released many CDs over the years, but this one clearly stands out. Often these types of CDs, which involve a 'Who's Who' of contemporary blues artists, do not live up to expectations -- this one is definitely an exception. Put Davies together with Musselwhite, Benoit, and Montoya and sparks fly. Debbie wrote 4 of the 9 songs, while the rest are covers. The 'A.C. Strut' with Coco Montoya is a tribute to Debbie's mentor, Albert Colins, and it really rocks. Listen to Musselwhite on 'Movin' and Groovin' and you will soon understand why he is often referred to as "the Dean of Blues Harmonica" -- outstanding. Tab does a great rendition of Hooker's 'Crawling King Snake' with his Louisiana swamp style, as he is joined by Debbie. On 'Sonoma Sunset,' the 10 minute finale, all 4 come together to create a masterful ending to a great blues CD. Debbie and Tab take on Howlin' Wolf's, 'Howlin' For My Darlin' and the results are stellar. You also have to love Debbie, Charlie, Tab, and Coco on 'Like You Was Gone' -- whew (!) great stuff. As with all Telarc recordings the sound is outstanding on this CD. This CD is a winner from beginning to end -- all 9 songs are done with tremendous blues styling by some of the very best in the world. Fifty-three minutes of pure blues. Highly recommended. Quick note: you also get to hear the great Bruce Katz on the B3 organ, Rod Carey on bass, and Per Hanson on drums -- what an additional supporting cast!
