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!
I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Deep In My Soul, from Big Daddy Wilson, and it's a solid mix of R&B and blues. Opening with I Know, a super R&B track Big Daddy Wilson (Blount) sounds off with a warm soulful voice, backed by Laura Chavez on guitar, Dave Smith on bass and Steve Potts on drums and the super horn backing of Brad Guin on sax, Ken Waters on trumpet and Trinicia Butler and Kimberlie Helton on backing vocals. Funky, Tripping On You has solid commercial potential with a super melody, a hot bass line, crisp guitar soloing by Chavez and tight backing vocals by Butler and Helton. Another smooth R&B track, Hold On To Our Love, is really nice with warm lead and backing vocal, shimmery lead guitar and cool organ work by Rick Steff. One of my favorite tracks on the release is funky soul track, Deep In My Soul with an excellent beat, a super groove, organ ride, great horn punch by Guin and Waters and edgy guitar work by Chavez. Excellent! Crazy World is a great blues track with sway. Wilson shows some of his best vocal work on this track and Chavez working overtime over the sweet bass lines of Smith really make this track hum. Redhead Stepchild has a smoky, lumbering feel with a deep bass line and solid vocals. Chavez's guitar lines are particularly hot and funky against a deep dark background. Very nice. Wrapping the release is spiritual number, Couldn't Keep it To Myself featuring Wilson, almost acapella backed by Mitch Mann, Brad Guin, and Ken Waters on great vocal harmonies and Will McFarlane on guitar. Excellent closer for a really nice release.

I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, The Soul of the King, from The BB King Blues Band and the title hits the nail on the head. Opening with Irene Irene, Russell Jackson has the mic and Kenny Wayne Shepherd plays scorching hot guitar riffs making this an excellent opener. The hear of the band is James Boogaloo Bolden on trumpet, Eric Demmer on lead sax, Jackson on bass, Walter King on sax, Herman Jackson on drums, Darrell Lavigne on keys, Lamar Boulet on trumpet, Wilburt Crosby on guitar, Brandon Jackson on drums, and Raymond Harris on trombone. Kenny Neal is up next on Sweet Little Angel covering both lead guitar and vocal. His playing is more mellow but no less soulful as he gets a good grip on the track in BB King style. Diunna Greenleaf's supreme vocal styling is There Must Be A Better World Somewhere and Demmer literally blows the doors off with his sensational sax soloing. Excellent! Solid soul on She's The One with Demmer on lead vocal and sax. The man is hot and his sax screams... check it out! Funky, Taking Care of Business has Jackson back on lead vocal backed by Bolden and Richardson. Crosby and Demmer trade rich solos giving this track real tension over the punchy horn work. Very nice. Regal Blues (A Tribute To The King) features Joe Louis Walker on lead vocal and guitar. With a solid shuffle rhythm Walker gets the band rockin' … you can almost see BB King's softly clenched fist clapping into his extended open palm. Bolden has the lead on Pocket Full Of Money, with a nice groove. Jackson's bass line sets the tone and Lamar Boulet blows a great trumpet solo. Very cool. Wrapping the release is Michael Lee on lead guitar and vocal on BB King's classic, The Thrill Is Gone. A soulful but bouncier track than typical of King, an excellent closer for a solid release.

I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Texas Honey, from Ally Venable and it's a fine blend of power pop and blues. Opening with rocker, Nowhere To Hide, Venable is on top with super vocals and fresh guitar riffs over a solid bass line by Bobby Wallace and the tight rhythm of Elijah Owings. Great opener. Title track, Texas Honey shows real grit with fat guitar tones and Gibbons like snarl. Excellent track. Blind To Bad Love has dark overtones, deep backing vocals and cool backing guitar work by Mike Zito. Come And Take It is a heavier track with real teeth. Eric Gales adds vocal and real snarling guitar riffs giving the band more intensity and more balance. Very cool. You knew it was going to happen... a young female guitar slinger taking on SRV. Love Struck Baby has lots of snap and Venable's guitar riffs aren't SRV but it's still hot and fun. Another track with vicious guitar riffs is White Flag. Venable turns up the grit up to Z (for ZZ Top) and really gets greasy. This track has a lot of flavor with heavy drums, a lumbering bottom and ripping guitars...very cool! Wrapping the release is another gritty blues rocker, Careless Love, with a thumping bass line and tight drum riffs. Venable's vocals are solid and her country flavored rock riffs are tasty and wet. Nice closer for a really cool release.

I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Roads That Cross, from Katarina Pejak and I really like it. Opening with surf rocker, Nature Of My Blues, Pejak is upfront on lead vocal and keys, with axe master Laura Chavez on guitar, Lonnie Trevino Jr. on bass, Damien Llanes on drums. Excellent opener. Modern jazz, blues track, Sex Kills has a cool, understated, almost reggae rhythm with solid lead vocals and nice piano work by Pejak. Southern soul oozes out of Pejak on Old Pain, a really nice track with real radio potential. Soft heat on organ gives the track an even warmer feeling yet. very nice. Country rocker, Chasing Summer has real sting with Chavez giving the track a coarse guitar edge and nice piano soloing by Pejak. One of my favorite tracks on the release is Latin flavored She's Coming After You. Llanes light had on drums really gives the track air, Chaves' guitar work is classic and Pejak's vocals are terrific. Excellent! Another radio track with a solid melody and really nice vocal harmonies is title track, Roads That Cross. Chavez lays low on guitar but her work are essential. Wrapping the release is The Harder You Kick, an easy ballad featuring Pejak on lead vocal and electric keys. A solid melody and clean execution makes this a strong closer for a really nice release.

I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Been Meaning To Tell You, from Ina Forsman and it's really strong. Opening with power ballad Be My Home, Forsman presents her vulnerable sounding vocal style over organ and piano by Red Young and gospel like backing vocals by Mark Kazanoff and Alice Spencer. Very nice. On Get Mine, blending hip hop vocal delivery and funky wah wah guitar by the notorious Laura Chavez, joined by Brannen Temple on guitar and Chris Maresh on bass really kicks this release into gear. Stepping high on Genius, Forsman moves further into a R&B groove with an excellent bass line and the Texas Horns (Mark Kazanoff - sax, John Mills bari sax, Al Gomez - trumpet, Randy Zimmerman - trombone) with yet more sassy guitar style by Chavez. An interesting track, Why You Gotta be That Way has strong lines in neo soul with flavors of one my favorites, Eryka Badu. The band glistens on piano and tight bass and drum lines makes this fusion track one of my favorites. Blues ballad, Miss Mistreated really showcases Forsman's voice and it's rich strength with solid emotion. Also playing right into Chavez's had, Laura grabs the track by the short hairs accenting Forsman's vocal emotion with excellent guitar punctuation. Latin flavored Every Single Beat gets a strong latin rhythm going and you start to wonder if Forsman can do about anything. The Texas Horns are jolly on the spot with just that right tough of punch and Temple's drums and percussion is perfect. Wrapping the release is Sunny showing Forsman alone, acapella and powerful. Nice closer. Who wouldn't be proud of this release.

I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Blue Room, from Mike Zito and it's terrific! Blue Room was Zito's debut release back in 1998 and it's great that Ruf Records is re releasing and remastering it for the fans. Opening with Hollywood, a funky blues rocker, Zito really has edge on vocal and is guitar work is wild and unbridled with solid bass work by Doug Byrkit and tight rhythms by Brian Zielie. Excellent opener. Another funky rocker is Pull The Trigger again with excellent raw energy on vocal and fluid guitar work by Zito. Very cool. Instrumental, Gravy Jam is a solid instrumental with super funky bass work from Byrkit and snappy beat from Zielie giving Zito a wide open floor to rip ion guitar and he takes full advantage. Excellent! Slow blues, Lovering, takes the uncontained playing feel of Steve Vai, Stevie Ray, Buddy Guy or Jimi Hendrix and plows it into raw blues energy in his own way creating wild free flowing soloing. Excellent! Ways About You has a warm chord backing over a reggae beat giving Zito yet another avenue to explore his guitar flow. Very nice. Soundcheck is another unbridled blues guitar exploration with an excellent bass and drum backing. Smoking. Wrapping the release is Zito's take on Elton John's mega hit, Rocket Man with a bit more edge and a lot more guitar. Zito really put together a strong package here. You need to check it out!

Mike Zito Debut 'Blue Room' Celebrates Two Decades
20th Anniversary Edition Re Released Nov 16th
on Ruf Records
It’s
back. The debut album that blew up the ’90s blues scene. The songs that
announced the touchdown of a major new talent. In modern times, as an
established solo star and former member of the globally acclaimed Royal
Southern Brotherhood, Mike Zito’s reputation precedes him. But turn back the
clocks. Rewind the film reels. Slip through the wormhole to 1998, when a
27-year-old punk kid took his first shot in the studio. “Blue Room,” he
reflects, “is the beginning of me becoming an artist.”
By
1998, Zito had been around the block. Raised at the sharp end in St. Louis,
Missouri, he’d witnessed the lean years of the ’70s, as his father – a union
employee at the local Anheuser-Busch brewery – grafted to support five kids in
a cramped apartment. Music was a way out, with Zito learning his craft at a
downtown guitar store, then seizing any live work that fell his way. As he told
the Blues Mag: “I’ve played with country bands, dance bands, rock bands,
alternative bands…”
Blue
Room
was the moment of clarity, when Zito realised he was burning to be more than a
roadhouse-filling covers band. In 1997, he assembled a dedicated lineup and
announced his new mission statement: original songs written from the heart. But
artistic integrity didn’t come cheap. With just $1000 for studio bills, the
entire Blue Room tracklisting was captured in a single day, and you can
still feel the urgency flood through the speakers. “We’d played the night
before until 6am at an all-night club in St. Louis,” recalls Zito, “and went to
the studio at 9am. We brought beer with us and basically did not sleep. The
vibe is total bravado, full of honesty.”
Blue
Room
changed everything. As the album sold, the songs began to be requested live –
displacing the Cream and Hendrix covers – and Zito was heralded as an artist of
rare potential. Back then, he didn’t anticipate the bitter-sweet future about
to unfold – the lost years of alcoholism in the post-millennium, the salvation
offered by his wife, Laura, the plaudits of Royal Southern Brotherhood in 2012
and the rising trajectory of his solo career since he picked it back up with
2015’s Keep Coming Back. But when Zito looks back now at Blue Room,
he wouldn’t change a thing: “I find such joy in listening to the young man on
this recording. I’m so proud that it’s finally being released by Ruf Records
after twenty years…”
If you’re remotely serious about modern blues, you’ll
have followed the twists and turns of Mike Zito’s fascinating career. The
Missouri-born bandleader overcame his crippling early addictions to
become one of modern America’s sharpest songwriters, and few artists have
written with such stark eloquence as he did on 2011’s Greyhound album. In
2012, Mike threw us a curveball, lining up alongside Devon Allman and
Cyril Neville as a key member of Royal Southern Brotherhood – and went on
to stay with the supergroup for two critically feted albums. But the call
of his own muse was too strong, and in 2014, Mike burst straight back
into his solo career with Keep Coming Back and Make Blues Not War. “I
have long wanted to join the Blues Caravan and run away, so I’m excited,”
he says. “My shows are energetic and passionate: I try hard to give
everything I’ve got and make every note count. You can expect rocking
blues guitar, with a dose of soul vocals, and a mix of my best songs.”
I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release (August 17, 2018), Bad Penny from Vanja Sky and it's a pop rocker with zip. Opening with title track, Bad Penny, Vanja Sky wastes no time in demonstrating her no prisoners attitude with a swaggering track that could easily be from the Lynyrd Skynyrd songbook. Leading the band on guitar and vocal Sky is backed by Mike Zito on guitar, Terry Day on bass, Matthew Johnson on drums and Lewis Stephens on keys. Low Down And Dirty is my favorite track on the release with what to me sounds like Mike Zito on vocal and slide guitar. This track has a gritty two step feel with cool guitar lead and vocals by Sky making this track hot hot hot! All Night has a poppy/rock feel with firm rhythm guitar and polished vocals by Sky. Ballad, Inside Pain has a smooth Mark Knopfler guitar feel and a solid radio melody. Another of my favorites is Give Me Back My Soul with a great SRV /Texas lope with Dave Smith on bass and Yonrico Scott on drums. Very cool. Pop rocker, Do You Wanna has great attitude with a rock and roll rhythm, stinging guitar riffs and a Joan Jett feel. Another track with a rowdy feel is Don't Forget To Rock n Roll, with melodic guitar lead and Patty Smith like vocal attitude. Wrapping the release is a southern based, Crossroads of Life with understated slide guitar and an anthem feel. This is a solid closer for a cool release.

I just had the opportunity to review the most recent self titled release, Victor Wainwright and The Train and it's rockin. Wainwright on lead vocal and keys pushes a nice duel with guitarist Pat Harrington, on Healing, backed by Billy Dean on drums and Terrance Grayson on bass. Also adding a nice bit of oomph are Mark Earley on sax and Doug Woolverton on trumpet. Nice opener. Train is a hot boogie woogie track with Wainwright really driving hard on vocal and piano. Woolverton and Earley fill nicely and Reba Russell's vocals are super. Excellent track. Soulful, Dull Your Shine is a really nice track that puts me in mind of D'Angelo with a suspenseful approach to the song and super vocals. Also of particular note on this track is a sweet guitar solo by Greg Gumpel. Blues with a distinct R&B feel, Thank You Lucille, is possibly my favorite track on release featuring some of Wainwright's best vocals on the release and Monster Mike Welch handling the lead guitar spot, backed by Reba Russell, Nick Black and Patricia Ann Dees on vocal. Boogie Depression is another driving boogie with super piano and excellent slide work by Harrington. Nice! Foot stompin rocker, Righteous really gets that tent revival feeling going with a solid bottom, powerful vocal by Wainwright, super slide work by Harrington, and vocal backing by Russell. Very cool. Rocking boogie, I'll Start Tomorrow is a real mover with cooking piano and organ, tight drums, a great sax solo by Earley and punchy trumpet work by Woolverton. Another track with strong slide lead by Harrington is Sunshine. His slide work is inspired and fat, soaring into the music nicely. A track, seemingly built around his excellent slide lead, a real keeper. Wrapping the release is gospel styled, That's Love To Me, with it's rich melody, organ and soulful vocals by Wainwright. Subtle but nice acoustic guitar by Jeff Jensen adds nicely and solid lead guitar by Harrington adds depth for an excellent closer to a really strong release.

~Victor Wainwright: What The Media Is Saying~
"Wainwright serves as an electrifying guide to a good
time-spinning tales, telling his listeners how to beat the blues, and
meticulously conjuring raw soul and energy out of his acoustic piano. He
displays a sharp sense of humor and a knack for storytelling... every
track is
brilliant."
LIVING BLUES
"Victor Wainwright is a world champion piano player,
two times over! Not only is Victor one of the greatest blues piano
players in the business, he’s also a world class-entertainer and
vocalist."
BLUES REVUE
“Savannah, GA native Victor Wainwright is all about
boogie-woogie piano, deep soul, and a voice that recalls Dr. John at his
best. He is a blues star, a tremendous player.”
CHICAGO BLUES GUIDE
"Victor Wainwright, winner of this year's Pinetop
Perkins Award at the BMA's, is a force to be reckoned with on a piano. He
IS honky-tonk and boogie, with a dose of rolling thunder. Wainwright's
playing is simply beautiful madness."
It had to be a train. The name of Victor
Wainwright's new band - and the sleeve image of their debut album - is
also the most fitting of metaphors. In music folklore, the train might
have associations with the freight-hopping bluesmen of yore, but with
this restless boogie-woogie innovator stoking the furnace, this latest
project is a charging locomotive - surging forward, crashing through
boundaries of genre, sweeping up fresh sounds and clattering headlong
past the doubters.
As the man himself hollers in the ivory-pounding
title track: "If you wanna boogie get aboard this train/Get yourself
a ticket or get out of the way..." At a sweet-spot in his career,
where most established stars would rest on their laurels, Victor
Wainwright & The Train instead rips up all that has gone before. The
twelve tracks are originals in every sense, written by Wainwright,
pricking up ears in a sterile music industry and stretching the concept
of roots in bold directions.
"I wanted to write this new music mostly on my
own," Wainwright explains, "as it was coming and speaking to
me. I believe that for roots music to grow, and reach out to new
audiences, we have to push it forward." The result is an album that
walks a tightrope between scholarly respect and anarchic irreverence.
You'll hear Wainwright twist boogie-woogie tradition on barrelhouse
thrillers like "Healing" and "Boogie Depression,"
both driven by his visceral piano style. But you'll also hear him
fearlessly explore the gamut of genre, from the Latin flavours and New
Orleans horns of "Wiltshire Grave," to the mellow
near-psychedelia of "Sunshine." It's a musical cocktail served
up by Wainwright's inimitable gravel-flecked vocal.
His words can be hilarious, as on "I'll Start
Tomorrow," on which he postpones his doctor's clean-living advice.
But they can also be heartfelt, on the gospel-tinged kiss-off of
"That's Love To Me". "I've tried to write songs that
remind us to love ourselves," explains Wainwright. "It doesn't
matter who voted for who, what your religion is, who you love..." On
this white-knuckle ride, only The Train could keep the material on the
tracks. "I ended up with a hit-squad of downright amazing musicians
that shared my curiosity for all corners of the roots genre. We wanted to
capture how we feel performing, right smack-dab on this record, and I
believe we've done that. Now I just try to keep up."
In truth, Wainwright has always been an artist that
sets the pace. Born into a musical family in Savannah, Georgia, the
formative influence of his father's vocals and grandfather's rolling
boogie-woogie piano compelled him into a life of music. By 2005, he'd
announced his talent with solo debut, Piana' From Savannah, while
his central role in Southern Hospitality and partnership with Stephen
Dees in WildRoots has seen him ignite stages and stereos for over a
decade. Among his numerous accolades: In 2013 and 2014, Wainwright won
the 'Pinetop Perkins Piano Player of the Year' at the Blues Music Awards.
Also in 2013, his collaborative album, Easy Livin' , made the Top
10 in the U.S. Billboard Top Blues Album Chart.
"Looking back on your career is a tough thing to
do," he says. "Challenges are many, and frequent, but when you
get it together, it can also be extremely rewarding." A man of many
talents, Wainwright is a composer, producer, vocalist, piano player and
award-winning entertainer. A long-standing leader of the boogie-woogie
pack, he could refer you to his BMA and Blues Blast trophies, or a
catalog that has repeatedly hijacked the Billboard Top 10. But rather
than dine out on past glories, this questing artist would rather you
joined him for the ride ahead. "Of course, I still have songs on
this album that are just about kicking ass and taking names, like The
Train," he laughs. "But if you listen to the lyrics, what I'm
really saying is, we got to get on the train and move forward
together."
