Blues For Boston is a suggestive but at the same time powerful album, done by a singer and guitar player called Lloyd Thayer, a real ‘killer’ and master of slide guitar technique he performs with full attention to produce a compact excellent piece of work Lloyd plays and sings with a deep feeling, using ‘lapstyle’ guitar technique and different guitar models, such as a twelve strings Washburn, a Gibson 1998 dobro, a 1929 National Resonator Tricone or a Beltone Resonator one among others Lloyd explores interesting new musical ways, cleverly combining Delta blues with Indian melodies with a very good taste, which gives as a result a convincing innovative record that also includes tributes to Fred McDowell, Skip James or Son House music
