I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Dreamcatcher, by Micki Free and it's a solid blues based rocker. Opening with bluesy, When The Devil's At Your Door, Micki Free on screaming lead guitar and Ray Green on vocal really anchors down and fires. With Mark Leach on keys, Benny Rietveid on bass and Cindy Blackman Santana on drums, this is a powerful opener. A funky bass line by Rhonda Smith on My Sweet Baby, and drums by Santana on drums sets the pace and Free on lead vocal and guitar carries the weight. With a bit of a heavier feel, Night Crawler is bass heavy with Rietveid holding the bottom and Santana setting the rhythm. Free's vocal and guitar attack gives this track real acceleration and Leach on keys is a solid addition. Wrapping the release is a live version of title track, Dreamcatcher featuring a real nice Native American flute solo and guitar work by Free over a nice bed of keys, bass, and drums by Leach, Rieveid and Santana. Solid closer.
