 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Ain't Wasting Time , from Nicky T And The Snake Charmers and it's dripping blues, soul and R&B music. Opening with Magic Sam 's, That's All I Need , Nicky T with soulful vocals and groomed guitar riffs gets into that Impressions groove. With Todd Glass on drums, Alex Lyon on bass, Chris Codish on keys, and Greg Nagy on backing vocals, this is a solid opener. Rock n Roller, Feel Like A Hundred , features a driving guitar lead with vocals by Nicky and super piano work by Andy Szymanski on piano. Pete Berg on drums and Frank Greenhalgh round out the band and this track is really moving. Gritty blues, The Glass really gets down featuring guitarist extraordinaire, Ronnie Earl on lead guitar and excellent vocals by Greg Nagy. This tracks really sails with the addition of Jon Johnson on drums, Mike Marshall on bass, Jason Bone on rhythm guitar, John Gavin on piano and warm organ work by Szymanski. Excell...

I started a quest to find terrific jazz and blues music and incredible musicianship when I was just a little kid. I also have a tremendous appreciation of fine musical instruments and equipment. One of my greatest joys all of my life was sharing my finds with my friends. I'm now publishing my journey. I hope that you come along!

Sean Pinchin - Bad Things - New Release Review

-
I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Bad Things, from Sean Pinchin and it's a tasty rocker. Opening with If You're Gonna Leave Me, Sean Pinchin charges for open field with a pumped up sound that could rev up a crowd. Rock style slide work and hand claps/tambourine/bass and foot pedal give you all the drive you need. Title track, Bad Things has a real cool swagger and a real nice slide feel. Bottom compliments of Jane Luvite (drums) and Rob Szabo (bass and keys) give it plenty of oomph and backing vocals by Jamie Grey add texture. Digging down into the delta, Skip James' Devil Got My Woman maintains it's mystery with multiple slide guitar textures but gets a light funky workover giving it a cool radio appeal. Stripping back the skin even more, Blind Willie Johnson's Nobody's Fault But Mine really gives Pinchin the opportunity to play old style blues, old style...vocal and guitar. Very nice. Wrapping the release is Steve Strongman's, River, with articulate finger picked rhythms, great vocals and melodic slide work. This is a cool, release with a blend of rock and real blues tracks, sure to give you a good listen.
