    Valoración: VERY GOOD

Here comes a very good debut album recorded for Delmark Records in Chicago, by singer, songwriter and guitarist Linsey Alexander, born in Mississippi and raised in Memphis, TN As many other bluesmen of his generation, Linsey had to work hard to earn his life and collect enough money to pay for a ticket and travel to Chicago where, like many other musicians, he had heard the ‘windy city’ was the ‘mecca’ for those people who wished to earn their lives playing blues Today the experience and stage knowledge he has got through the years, has made him an able singer and guitarist Besides, he has played or shared stage with BB King, Bobby Rush, Buddy Guy, Little Milton, Magic Slim, Johnny Taylor, Larry McCray, AC Reed, Byther Smith, John Primer, Otis Clay and Eddy Clearwater In this debut album you will find twelve superb own songs, where he shows an excellent technique, not only as a composer, but also as guitar player and singer He is surrounded by some very professional great musicians like harmonica player Billy Branch, or Roosvelt Purifoy on keyboards among others, together with an excellent horn trio that contribute to magnify the whole sound
