Notes: Colin James is somewhat of a chameleon. He has released everything from swing-blues to pop to R&B.
On this CD, James, in my opinion, is at his best. He is joined for this all acoustic session by his friend and fellow canadian, Colin Linden ("Through the Storm" and "Raised By Wolves").
The song selections are good, mixing some originals with the tunes of Yank Rachell, Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon, Robert Johnson and even soul man Sam Cooke. Together, both Colins' guitar playing is excellent and their vocals harmonize and blend well.
To date, this is my favorite Colin James CD. If you are looking for some good acoustic playing, this CD should meet your needs. ~ deepbluereview
