When you hear this new CD by the Art of Blues you will know immediately you are listening to something special. The band consists of musical veterans who have all earned their stripes playing with the best of the best for many decades. What comes through is a rollicking brand of playing ... a mood of joy, depth, confidence and fun that is only achievable when you ve got guys with deep musical roots who know what they are doing and who take the greatest pleasure in doing it. The formation of a band with this level of musicianship and maturity to celebrate the art of playing the blues is a rare happening. This is a CD you will want to own!
