    Valoración: GREAT

I must admit this guy has the makings of musician and he is destined to become one of the great innovators, as well as perpetuators, of California West Coast blues. King Solomon makes himself up in every song included in this wonderful “Under The Sun”. Solomon is an expert, enthusiastic artist gifted with an exquisite taste as blues song-writer, singer and player. Ten superb songs with a magnificent sound, that will greatly impress you since the first notes of the opening album track, King carefully and lovely cooks with his blues-based repertoire, but he also adds different elements of soul, funk, gospel, rhythm & blues and roots rock music. On this album he sings, plays guitar and also relies on musicians with a very high technical level, such as Ray Parker Jr. guitar (Ghost Busters), Ollie Brown drums (Stevie Wonder), Reggie McBride bass (Keb Mo, Ricki Lee Jones) or arranger, producer and keyboard player Sylvester Rivers. You will also find some other musicians involved who contribute and help to round off a superb work.
