Album Notes & Community Reviews

Reuniting with highly sought-after producer Kevin Shirley, the extraordinarily prolific guitarist attempts a more direct, heavily rooted blues rock approach for his tenth studio album. The tracklist balances muscular original compositions with deeply reverent covers of foundational artists like Howlin' Wolf and Robert Johnson. It notably features Brad Whitford of Aerosmith on rhythm guitar, significantly bolstering the album's classic, riff-heavy vintage sound.
