 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 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!

Blonde on Blonde Direct artist: Dave Thomas - Bridge Street Blues - New Release Review

-

I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Bridge Street Blues, from Dave Thomas, and it's a solid blues rocker in the vein of Mayall or JJ Cale. Opening with Go To Legends, an easy flowing Cale like track Dave Thomas on vocal and guitar sits down in a groove, with nice guitar riffs that really work, and Declan Sinnott on drums holds it tight.  Gone For Good is a broken down country rocker that has super style. A trace of Neil Young with cool acoustic slide gives this track a memorable melody. Honey is a smooth as silk with some of Thomas' best vocals on the release in traditional blues style. Light acoustic guitar work by Thomas really works on this track. One of my favorite tracks on the release is blues rocker, I Know You Through and Through with a snappy drum rhythm by Sinnott. Thomas balances his soft spoken vocals with nice, round guitar tone solos, overlaid on his own guitar rhythm. Very cool. Wrapping the release is title track, Bridge Street Blues, with it's caution stepping rhythm, mellow vocals and smooth guitar lead. This is a cool release with plenty of juice.
