Charlie Wood always stirs up passion wherever he plays his music Singer, keyboards player and gifted song writer, he shows a strong character, rhythm and feeling in all his songs Wood influences can be found in New Orleans musical tradition, he combines with powerful rhythm, together with Stax sound elements And the question is, could we say Charlie Wood has waken up the legacy of sixties and seventies classic Stax sound? Probably he has not only waken it up, but he has also given a personal style and a new personal groove to it, which is something only great musicians can do On this new cd Charlie Wood gives us all his knowledge and he immediately reaches communication with the audience, thanks to his magic feeling, his tasteful voice, his warm bright phrasing, and his intense keyboards playing on Hammond B-3, organ or electric and acoustic piano A great album coming from Charlie Wood and some of his Memphis friends, that will satisfy all his fans If you are not yet familiar with Charlie, only say this cd will make you discover the new white Ray Charles of the contemporary Beale Street sound
