Yes, Willie Buck sings but, goddamn!! how does he sing! Buck is an old style Chicago blues singer, although he really controls, inflects and lets him go into an actual contemporary but, at the same time, primary and versatile field Willie Buck recorded his first album three decades ago and, since then on, he had never come back to the recording studios A couple of years ago Delmark reissued the album with the title The Life I Love that was very favorably received among traditional Chicago blues fans Now Willie successfully comes back with this excellent Cell Phone Man backed by some of the ‘cream’ of actual Chicago blues scene, like Rockin’ Johnny Burgin solo guitar, Rick Kreher rhythm guitar, John Sefner bass, Steve Bass drums, Barrelhouse Chuck piano and harmonica players Bharath Rajakumar and Martin Lang All them have done a complete rewarding album that will surprise you There is magic, a warm atmosphere and an intense feeling in each of the seventeen album songs Cell Phone Man appears to be a starting point of the new blues history that should be written from now on
