Benny Turner is a magnificent singer, gifted with an excellent vocal register, full of strength and an overwhelming feeling He is also an effective, strong and powerful bass player For years Benny Turner played the bass in Freddie King’s band With this album, Benny wants to honor the memory of a man he called his ‘brother Freddie King’ and he does it with an amazing dynamism and a hundred percent effectiveness The band sounds powerful and attractive and the chosen repertoire could not have been more faithful to the music of his hero Boogie Man, Let’s The Good Time Roll, Have You Ever Loved A Woman, Goin’ Down, Same Old Blues or Tore Down among others, come along this extremely hard and effective album Songs flow easily until arrive to Hideaway, all played with an extreme elegance, strength and audacity, to make listeners participate in a complete symbiosis, not only with Benny Turner himself, but also with the spirit of Freddie King which is present along the whole work The musicians involved are very professional ones, with an outstanding great personal career Besides, horn arrangements contribute to magnify the project This is an ambitious album that should not go unnoticed for every fan of blues with touches of funk and soul
