Austin's finest, and then some!.......2007-02-08

Not only are many of these artists among the finest blues artists on the planet, but the history behind them is important as well. Lou Ann Barton, who performs a duet with Jimmy Vaughan (In the Middle of the Night) was the lead vocalist for The Cobras, SRV's first Austin band.
Highlights, in no particular order:
1) Jonny Lang's "Groundhog Day" - Given that this young man has now sold out to mainstream music, this may be the last blues/funk recording he ever makes. What a cryin' shame...
2) Kenny Wayne Shepard's licks - For the same reason as Jonny.
3) Doyle Bramhall II - This gentleman was SRV's primary song writing partner, and for good reason. Doyle is a fine guitarist in his own right, although I must admit his vocals grate on me.
4) Charlie Sexton's "Turn Towards the Mirror" - Charlie is an awesome musician and songwriter. His subliminal vocals match up perfectly with his style of writing ( or perhaps it's the otherway around...) After buying this CD, pick up Charlie's "Cruel and Gentle Things"
5) Last, but certainly not least, Malford Milligan on "Cry Sky" and "Skyscraper" - Simply put, Malford is the sweetest voice the state of Texas has ever produced. If this album only contained his two performances, it would still be worth the price. After purchasing this CD and Charlie's "Cruel and Gentle Things", go to [..]and purchase the Storyville album "Bluest Eyes", and prepare to be blown away. If you didn't already know, Storyville was formed with Malford, Tommy Shannon, Chris Layton, David Grissom, and David Hoyt as a direct result of Malford's contribution to this recording. All of Storyville's recordings are themselves deserving of your attention. If you can't find them here, you can get them through Malford's site or CDBaby.com

Did I mention Willie Nelson and Dr. John? What the hell are you reading this for? Buy them damn CD!

FIle this under "Timeless!".......2003-08-20

I'm no music critic, but I am a music addict -- for a hugely broad range of genres and artists. This CD really satisfies my craving for diversity of both vocal styles and music. Double Trouble is of course, a legend, and the additional artists on this collaborative work don't overshadow them, but complement them! Stevie Ray would be proud!

I would even suggest this CD as a hostess/host gift for a party -- it will appeal to a wide variety of audiences!

Fabulous in every way.......2003-03-07

My husband and I were watching Austin City Limits a few weeks ago and all of these artists were performing these great songs. We realized that this must be an album, went to Amazon.com, found it, and ordered it on the spot! I HAVE to hear it at least twice a day - it is just the best cd I have heard in a long, long time, pun intended! I highly recommend this cd. In fact, I am going to buy two more copies to give to my grown children who share our love of great music.
