User Album Review
Since the release of their last album, Kentucky, the band released an EP – Black to blues, an EP that paid tribute to several Blues legends with some cover versions. I think that was probably a sign that we could expect more of a Blues sound to creep into this album, and that certainly seems to have happened. They haven’t ditched their Southern Rock sound in favour of making a Blues album, but what they have done is brought a Blues sound in and mixed it with their Southern rock to give a more diverse sound.
Burnin’ has a guitar riff that just makes me think of ZZ Top – I can easily imagine them doing this song.
Understandably in “James Brown” there’s a nice funk element, and the female gospel singer style backing vocals suit the song and it’s subject nicely. There’s a gospel element in “My last breath” too, but this time it’s an organ. It’s a beautiful song with a really intimate personal feel.
“Dancin’ in the rain” see’s the band joined by Gov’t Mule’s Warren Haynes
“I need a woman” is a blues-rock song which sounds like it’s influenced by bands such as Free or Bad Company.
Listening to the album, it’s clearly their most diverse album yet and they’ve brought in a wider range of influences than before – so there’s the southern rock element but then they’ve added funk, gospel, blues and blues-rock to it. It’s an absolutely fantastic album.
