I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Soul Of A Nation, from Murali Coryell and it's a driving blues rocker. Murali Coryell, son of famed fusion guitar wizard, Larry Coryell is ready with his 10th studio album. Opening with blues rocker, Pardon Me, Coryell on guitar and vocal is joined by Bill Foster on bass, and Peter O'Brien on drums. A straight up track with a solid groove and interesting phrasing is a solid opener. Rocker, Severe Anxiety, is one of my favorites on the release with a strong melody and relentless guitar work. Very cool. Title track, Soul Of A Nation, has a R&B feel and strong radio opportunity with a great melody and an almost Darryl Hall vibe. Coryell really digs in on Ukraine War Cries with it's blues basis and gripping vocals, really giving Coryell the platform to make his guitar scream. Very nice. Wrapping the release is laid back soul track, Eyes Wide Open with a smooth melody and Mayfield like melody. With Ernie Durawa on drums, Lannie Hilboldt on bass, Will Owens Gage on guitar and Joe Morales on sax, this is a solid closer.
