Bernard Allison had a great master in his father, legendary singer and guitar player Luther Allison He has inherited his particular and well pitched vocal tone, besides his masterful guitar phrasing and sound As years have gone passing by Bernard Allison has consolidated his career and today he has become one of the mist prominent names of actual blues scene With this album, Bernard comes back to German label Ruf Records, the same one that, in 1994, served as home to his father and made him return to the first line of Afroamerican bluesmen in Europe, as some years before also did French label Black And Blue where Luther recorded that delicious and unforgettable LP called Love Me Papa Coming back to the album, Bernard Allison has gained in maturity and creativity and the whole recording proves it, with a repertoire where blues and funk-blues get a prominent essential role For the album Allison decided not to include additional instrumentation like keyboards or a horn section, to display his most personal raw and fundamental sound Besides Bernard Allison on vocals and guitars, the band musicians are John T McGhee on rhythm guitar, George Moye on bass and Mario Dawson on drums and percussion The chemistry as friends and bandmates, together with their good work, becomes evident along this remarkable recording
