Guy Davis - $20 - "If the earthy power of Guy Davis's sandpaper vocals doesn't grab your attention and the resonance of his acoustic-guitar strings doesn't turn your head, you need to make sure you're still alive…. He sings, "I ain't no bluesman/I'm the bluesman's son," a nice analogy for his music--it's linked to the past but living today." --Robert Gordon.
"So much contemporary blues is weak and pallid. Guy Davis is never like that. He has a power and authenticity which makes him sound as though he is in direct contact with the old masters. And, interestingly, his own compositions (of which there are seven on this recording) are so in tune with the tradition that they seem as though they were written after a hard day in the cottonfields." Bruce Elder -Sydney Morning Herald.
