If you dislike this you have no soul.

[Paul Kenworthy]

sometimes you know almost instantaneously when you are hearing something beyond the restraints of time or genre, this artist captures the quintessence of the blues, and reaches beyond to appeal to something inside your soul and unlocks some learned inhibitions of base groovyness feelings. I dig it.

Isto é o verdadeiro Blues, muito bom ! Que som !!!!

[Brian Wilson]

Hard to believe that it could ever get any better than this. Raw, unpolished, unprocessed, and played straight from the gut the way it was meant to be. Sad that most of these players died dirt poor with no or very little recognition though they were the founding fathers of the blues. The blues are as American as American music can get...

[Blood Grain]

Super massive blues. When they perfect time travel. I want's to go... sit my self down... bottle in hand... and listen to this man all the day long...

[Matthew Lloyd]
