After the excellent reception of his previous album Meat & Potatoes recorded in 2005, Ian Siegal confirms the status he has reached with his new piece of work, produced by great guitar player Matt Schoffield This time Ian deeply explores well known musical styles he develops with the electric guitar, banjo, mandoline, and acoustic finger pickin’ guitar, different contemporary gumbos, Chicago blues, Memphis soul, Delta blues, gospel, tex-mex, Mississippi hill country blues and New Orleans marching songs The backing musicians are the same of his previous recording, that is to say Andy Graham on bass and Nik Bjerre on drums You will also find as guest musicians in some tracks Matt Schofield on guitar, Johnny Henderson on organ and Wurlitzer, Martin Lewis on sax and German harmonica player ‘Big Pete’ Van der Pluym A first class record from one of the most discerning musicians of contemporary British blues A complete genius!!
