American Blues Artist Group artist: Dudley Taft - The Speed Of Life - New Release Review

-

 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, The Speed Of Life, by Dudley Taft and it's a solid blues rocker. Opening with Wanted Man, Dudley Taft, the great, great, grandnephew of US President William Howard Taft, hits the road running with a funk rhythmed rocker contributing strong melodic vocals, and guitar riffs, supported by Nick Owsianka on drums, Dave Marks on bass, keys and percussion, Bennett Holland on keys, and Ashley Charmae and Gina McCann on backing vocals. Forward rocker, Work It Out has a great driving rhythm and nicely harmonized vocals with potent guitar soloing by Taft. Pretty Little Thing has a cool, SRV like guitar riff to start it off and trademark Taft vocal harmonies electrify the track backed by real nice guitar work supported by Holland on keys. Very cool. Topaz Blue has a real nice swagger. Owsianka on drums really stands on it on this one and Holland's keys saturate the track giving Taft plenty of room to soar on guitar. Into The Blue gives Taft a great opportunity to show off his fancy finger work on acoustic guitar and with warm vocals and a smooth harmonies, this is a solid radio track. Wrapping the release is No Time Left, a strong radio rocker with a tight bottom, strong backing vocals and a direct melody. This is a packed release with plenty of guitar packed energy.
