Kirk Fletcher became well known as The Fabulous Thunderbirds guitar player Today his name is popular worldwide and has gained recognition among blues fans, thanks to his elegant and distinctive guitar sound and playing, having also performed at the most prestigious festivals Here comes his last recording where he has included ten songs, some of them own compositions, two of them written in collaboration with Robert Cray’s bass player Richard Cousins, together with some dark covers coming from artists like Sonny Boy Williamson, Chris Cain, AC Reed and Juke Boy Bonner that allow him to pay homage to these artists, keeping alive some of their songs that, although they are rather obscure still keep an amazing quality and deserve to be heard by the new generations of blues lovers In his own words, this music is the one that motivates him the most and makes him experience the same feelings than, only aged twelve, he came for the first time to a blues festival and saw Albert Collins live, who deeply impressed him with his blues performing Kirk Fletcher is backed by a group of good musicians and friends such as Travis Carlton on bass, Lemar Carter and David Kida on drums, Jeff Babko on keyboards, Joe Sublett on sax and Mark Pender on trumpet, with the special contribution of Charlie Musselwhite and Josh Smith in the song Life Gave Me A Dirty Deal An attractive recording!
