Singer, song-writer and guitar player Chris Thomas King pays his personal beautiful homage to Katrina hurricane disaster and the terrible devastation it made on hundreds of buildings, villages, lands and human lives who died or lost everything under that devastating force of nature Thomas Kings develops an album full of lyricism, performing strength and lots of poetry, together with an enormous musical dimension He cleverly combines gospel, blues, soul and rhythm and blues in eleven songs full of an intense dramatism and a heartbreaking beat with precise tasteful instrumental arrangements too Chris shows himself as an expressive emotional singer and guitar player In short words, a beautiful honest record
