 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Live , from Zac Harmon & The Drive and it's super! Opening with soulful, NTRO , Nate Robinson on bass and Gino Iglehart on drums set a solid foundation, with Corey Lacy building on keys and lush guitar work by Zac Harmon and Kingston Livingston really setting the bar. Terrific opener. Blue Pill Thrill has super movement and soulful vocals by Harmon. Lacy on keys works the rhythm with Robinson and Iglehart and Livingston and and Harmon play stinging riffs on guitar really giving this track some kick. Deep blues track, Feet Back On The Ground features Albert King like stinging riffs and super soulful vocals by Harmon. Keeping the music floor low allows Harmon plenty of space to go dynamically from soft to wow quickly adding real emotion to the track. Excellent! Boogie Down is a strong jam with a firm piano base by Lacy giving Harmon plenty of headroom for vocal corralling. Lacy lays in some real tasty keyboar...

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!

Robert Thurman - Burning Daylight - New Release Review

By Bman -

 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Burning Daylight, from Robert Thurman and it real and raw. Opening with American Jesus Blues, Robert Thurman plays blues in it's most stripped down form. Just his vocal and rhythm guitar. On Blues This Morning, Thurman has created a solid melody and strums it on electric guitar, answering his call vocally. Very cool. Ofermod is a interesting little instrumental track with the basic bones of a European folk song. Nervous Blues is another track that caught my attention with Thurman singing the melody accompanied by innovative slide resonator guitar. Sonny Boy Williamson's Ground Hog Blues has real spunk and guts holding a traditional blues format. So Far From Home is one of my favorites on the release with a folky, western styling of the troubadour cowboy and guitar. Very nice. Wrapping the release is One Last Breath, a story told without any guitar accompaniment. This is a cool and unusual release and definitely worth a listen.
