A ten. If you like your Blues firmly rooted in tradition, and performed with flair and style, that's what we give this disc. A ten.

This CD's lineup consists of Kirk Fletcher, Frank Goldwasser, Finis Tasby, Bobby Jones, Kid Ramos, Nick Curran, Mike Zito, Fred Kaplan, Arthur Adams, and Rod Piazza to name only a few.

The band's approach to mining Blues nuggets from the past and breathing new life into them for today's generation of Blues enthusiasts works like a charm. Or more like a sparkling gemstone. This is Blues like it should be performed. Honest, straight forward and full of life. A ten.
