I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Empty Chair, by Mike Dangeroux and it's a cool mix of blues and rock. Opening with shuffle, End Like This, Mike Dangeroux leads the way on vocal and guitar as well as bass, joined by Vincent Varco on piano, and Daron Casper Walker on drums. With an Elmo James kind of turnaround, this is a cool opener. Blues rocker, Play My Cards Right, has a snappy drum beat and Dangeroux's vocal/rhythm guitar sets the pace. I like Mike's guitar phrasing and style on this one. Solid contribution. Wrapping the release is slow blues, What's Taking So Long, featuring Dangeroux showing his chops over his soulful vocals. Varco on organ and tight drums from Walker makes this a solid closer.
