Some of the time he sounds like Junior Parker - there are three Parker numbers here, including a very fine reading of 'Sitting & Thinking' - and some of the time like Muddy Waters, but to say this is not to classify Rhodes as a chameleon. He admires excellent models and some of their style has rubbed off on him without in turn erasing his own, which may be discerned in his intense, absorbed renditions of his own songs like 'Country Boy' and 'All Night long They Play The Blues'. This is deep blues music, tinted with some humour but no hilarity. The listener who agrees with the proposition in the title will like this album very much indeed.
