Original Fleetwood Mac guitarist along with Peter Green (when they played blues and were pretty damn good). Spencer plays a mix of blues, rock, country w/ nice slide work, solid band. Mostly originals w/ a few Elmore James songs and an Otis Rush song. No FCC’s.
*My Favorites*: 1, 3, 4, 6, 8
1. *(3:53) Mid. Elmore James classic w/ that Elmore gtr lick and piano tickling.
2. (4:05) Mid. Another James tune, steady drums, strong gtr.
3. *(3:19) Mid. INSTRUMENTAL. Mellow country / folk flair, slide gtr.
4. *(4:20) Slow / Mid. Easy-going gait, a bit dark yet hopeful.
5. (3:27) Mid. Upbeat, peppy ’50’s r’n’r vibe.
6. *(4;01) Mid. INSTRUMENTAL. Beautiful ‘musical picture’ w/ a ‘Greek vibe’ according to Spencer.
7. (3:58) Slow / Mid. Mellow w/ plodding beat and nice organ.
8. *(6:05) Mid. Another Elmore James tune, rockin’ blues, w/ a ‘Latin-style treatment’.
9. (3:53) Mid. Otis Rush song w/ killer slide work, solid percussion, bass.
10. (4:03) Slow / Mid. INSTRUMENTAL. Heavy ethereal vibe. Nice.
11. (3:40) Slow / Mid. Slight Beatles / Harrison vibe. Mellow mood.
12. *(4:34) Slow / Mid. Beautiful piano piece. Heavenly.
13. (5:45) Mid. Rocker w/ full band, backing vcls.
14. (5:07) Mid. Title track. Folky w/ acoustic / elec gtrs, backing vcl.
