Zac Harmon & The Drive - Live - New Release Review

Image
 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Live , from Zac Harmon & The Drive and it's super! Opening with soulful, NTRO , Nate Robinson on bass and Gino Iglehart on drums set a solid foundation, with Corey Lacy building on keys and lush guitar work by Zac Harmon and Kingston Livingston really setting the bar. Terrific opener. Blue Pill Thrill has super movement and soulful vocals by Harmon.

On Mojo Hand , David Satterwhite lays down a nice bass line and Turner stretches out some pretty funky blues riffs on guitar. Meros and Hendrickson are back on horn giving it a kind of Memphis sound and Turner's vocal phrasing reminds me a bit of Johnny Guitar. A real swinger, C.C. Rider , takes a different tempo than what is typically associated with this track with Hendrickson pushing the lead on trumpet amd Meros holding down the bottom.
