You will immediately feel positive vibrations if your day has gone wrong and be motivated to dance with your beloved to feel good again after coming home. The guitar solos of Igor remind by style of the unforgettable King Of The Blues and his Lucille. Wee Willie Walker seduces by his sweet, lovingly lead-voice. Raphael provides by his key-solos a sweeping, harmonious sound-floor. “Young Girl” is a rockin’ Chicago blues and Hammond-Dervish Wressnig plays his big “TrickOr Treats”. The jam-duets of Igor and him are just stunning. As the cold winter nights are nearing “Suffering With The Blues” is a beautiful ballad to enjoy a joyful and loveable evening with your baby at a romantic warm place by candlelight. By “No-La-Fun-Ky” Raphael spices his blues-gumbo with some funk-jazz. A very experimental, groovy peak. “Turnip Greens” has a sixties flavor featuring dynamic rhythms, six-string therapies the Memphis vein and the lord of the keys explodes by his solos the wild style. A culmination song where RW continues the legacy of heavenly Jon Lord. “My Love Is” has a sing-along west-coast flair. The musicals bosses prove how diversified their virtuoso play-grounds can be by “The Face Slap Swing Nr. 5“. A jazzy swingin’ blues reminding of the good ole’ Al Capone times. “Don’t Cry No More” is a hooky stomper the ”Let The Good Times Stroll” tradition. Bourbon meets Beale Street and the parties conglomerate the hellish hot ceremonies style. By “Don’t Cry Me No More” & “Heartbreak” Wee Willie’s voice, Igor’s guitar-artistry and Raphael’s organ-sorcery is a proverbial jam-firework. Mister Walker is hell of a stunning, powerful singer! “Why Don T You Haul Off And Love Me One More Time” is the grand final blues’n roll southern-hymn.
