Once again singer and harmonica player Joe Nosek and his musicians or, if you prefer, The Cash Box Kings, capture the whole spirit and variety of the traditional Chicago blues, with the personal touch that distinguishes them from other similar bands In this new work The Cash Box Kings have bet heavy because, apart from Joe himself on vocals and harmonica, you will also find Oscar Wilson vocals, Kenny Smith and Mark Haines on drums, guitar players Joel Paterson and Billy Flynn, Jimmy Sutton on bass, double bass and vocals, Chris ‘CB’ Boeger, on bass in one song, piano player Barrelhouse Chuck and finally Alex Hall on drums and piano in one cut Although most of the album songs are signed by Joe, Joel or Oscar, the album pays tribute to the great names of Chicago blues The spirit and soul of Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf, Willie Dixon and Sonny Boy Williamson are present in every track, getting back the 50’s ‘vintage’ sound A faultless cd fans will really enjoy with the twelve excellent songs included
