Slim Cuts artist: Slim Butler - Bad Intention - New Release review
I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Bad Intention , from Slim Butler and it's terrific! Slim has great style and it's been too long since I reviewed his last release Inner Blues back in 2013. Opening with All About You a cool R&B style blueser, a la Robert Cray, Tad Robinson shows just how sweet his voice is on soulful music and with a tight band lead by Jarmo " Slim" Puhakka on nicely stylized guitar riffs, Esko Ollila on drums, Harri Taitonen on keys and Hannu Lehtomaa on bass and punched up by the horn section (Slimcuts) of Tapio Maunuvaara on trumpet, Jukka-Pekka Peltoniemi on trumpet, Olli Tuomainen on tenor sax and Antti Napankangas on trombone. Great opener. On driving rocker, Mean Trouble , Andrew Black has the mic with a heavier feel and Slim keeps things close on guitar. On funky, Junk In The Trunk , you get a definite Tower Of Power feel with nice horn work, Black again on lead vocal and excellent drum work from Olli...
