From Florida comes the music done by singer and guitarist Tommy Lee Cook, a passionate and completely devoted musician Tommy Lee plays and has done these two albums with all his heart, wishing to give the best of himself and have fun with all the musicians involved, who also enjoy themselves in both cds, with a total determination and commitment You will find drummers Ted Scott and Billy Canty, August Zona on bass, Harry Cassano and Pat Hayes on keyboards, Skin’er Back Quartet on vocals, Terry Gable on saxos, Scott ‘Big Daddy ‘Johnson on harmonica and Tommy Lee Cook himself on guitars and dobro, plus five other guitarists Rex Bongo, Duke Danger, Justin Richey, Rastus Kane and Danny Shepard, who take turns throughout different tracks Each cd includes eleven tracks and five Tommy Lee Cook’s own songs, which make ten Tommy’s own ones, while the rest come from different artists like Bob Dylan, Willie Dixon, Greg Allman or Lowell Fulson among others Two varied albums that cover different styles, from blues to funk or Americana, but also southern, rock, blues shuffles or slow blues Both cds are well recorded and perfectly performed, the musicians have swing, twist and sometimes they produce a fun joyful sound Personally I think in some passages harmonica is not necessary and even detract from the good work of the rest of the musicians Fortunately, not all songs include harmonica on them
