Blues On My Shoulders

2017-11-16

Awesome blues album. There were some hints of Chubby Checker on a couple of tunes, and then sweet sounds of legendary blues like Howlin Wolf, and of course some more modern blues as well, like a SRV. Lots of variety and it shows through not only the instruments, but the vocals as well. I thought it was well recorded. Loved tracks 2,6,8,and 12 the most. Recommend picking it up and giving it a spin.
