Jay Gaunt is a virtuoso amazing harmonica player Jason Ricci said about him he is one of the best actual harp players and, of course, he is copmpletely right, if i take into account what i have heard in this album Jay currently enjoys a huge popularity and prestige, which is daily growing up This new young New Jersey talent has a unique innovative highly selective sound His stunning technique is rooted in the great harmonica masters he has carefully learned and completely studied, soaking all their tricks, technique and phrasing A good example can be found on blowers like Larry Adler, Howard Levy and Sugar Blue, Gaunt deeply admires In this album Jay gives us a masterclass of how harmonica should be played on a band The cd cleverly combines different styles, from jazz to pop or rock music, but keeping always blues as a reference, coming out from the depeest part of his heart, because blues is the music which has always fascinated him
