Cathi's CDs -- 2-13-2011

[+/-] show/hide

Davidson, Terry & The Gears – “Damnation Blues” (Blue Skunk Music) C

Flat-out rock with an occasional blues chord. Mostly tequila-drinking, Rolling-Stones smashin’ rock and roll. Probably a great dance band behind some serious shots…not, however, recommended for WFHB airplay.

May, Willie – “Blue Decade” (Willie May Music) C

Gruff-voiced singer backed by band with good players and James Cotton sits in on harp (#7). Nice lady singer who sometimes duets with Willie. Overall, though, the music isn’t very compelling. Can’t recommend it.

Popa Chubby – “The Essential Popa Chubby” (Blind Pig) B

Little Ted Horowitz has been knockin’ those rockin’ guitar stingers back again…this time he lays in a few less than blastin’ tunes in the mix, but sticks to his usual bad-attitude rock ‘n roll….with an occasional blues chord (I think it’s a “G”). Still good for the rockers and guitarists who want to get down—right NOW damnit. A little more of a dynamic selection of tunes than usual (check out #6 for instance). Adept guitar playing and lots of it (also as usual)…this time with back-up vocals and a little more philosophy in the lyrics. Though fans probably think if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it…I think this is an improvement. Mostly rock though – t’ain’t blues.

Wolf, Todd – “Live” (American Home Entertainment) C

Live renditions of slam, distorto-guitar and head-bangin’ rock tunes…..Jim Dandy to the rescue…not recommended for WFHB.
