ROD PIAZZA & MFBQ "THRILLVILLE" Source: WVKR Date: 08/2007 Writer: Nick Delay

Rod Piazza & The Mighty Flyers Blues Quartet, Thrillville (Delta Groove).  Solid West Coast Blues built on Mr. Piazza's mighty harmonica and Honey Piazza's considerable talents on piano. Newcomers Henry Carvajal and Dave Kida round out the quartet on guitar and drums, leaving the bass parts to Ms. Piazza's left hand.  As usual, there are some nice instrumentals: Westcoaster (2) is lively and smooth, while The Civilian (9) is a bit moodier, showing off Mr. Carvajal's licks.  Snap Crackle Hop (12) is a jump work out.  My favorite vocal track is Honey Bee (7) the latest in a long line of double-entendres based on those pollinating insects.
