Do not expect anything but the same "old" blues from this CD. However if you are true blues fans just ask to yourself: "do I really want something different?" If the answer is "no" don't hesitate a second and pick up this CD! I don't think that Ronnie Earl backed by his mate and Broadcaster former member Bruce Katz and almost the entire Muddy Waters' band was looking for anything different than playing the blues as it is written in the sacred text books when he approached the recording studio. The real strength of this album is that all the musicians involved in this project are the "cream of the cream" and the result, as easily predictable, is simply unmatchable. Willie "Pinetop" Perkins, Calvin "Fuzz" Jones, Willie "Big Eyes" Smith can give lectures about how to play the blues to everyone in the business, Bruce Katz himself is nowadays one of the most talented B3 players and Ronnie Earl is probably the best white blues guitarist around. The album is a mix of originals and old tunes written by Perkins or Smith and covers of masters such as Memphis Slim, Roosevelt Sykes, Tampa Red and Sonny Boy Williamson. Despite the fact that the entire album sounds very much like a respectful and sincere homage to the greatest blues men of the past, the unmistakable stile of Ronnie Earl elevates this collection to a different level. The impression you get is to listen to something incredibly fresh and "new". He plays acoustic, slide and of course electric guitars always with the usual intensity and feeling that have made him unique in the blues guitarists scenario. All the others stellar musicians involved in the project play at their best and the final result is awesome, moreover the Audioquest production and recording are as usual simply perfect. Rate this CD "only" five stars it's a real crime it deserve much more than that!
