Another solid album from Chicago native with some mean, gritty, rollickin’ yet soulful and blissful gems. Featuring Michael Ledbetter (yes, that’s Lead Belly’s relative) on guitar and half the vocals. Great playing throughout w/ gtr, bass, drums, keys. No FCC’s.
*My Favorites*: All.
1. (4:57) Mid. Good-time groover.
2. (5:51) Mid. Chuggin’ rompin’ ride.
3. (4:19) Mid. Upbeat and struttin’.
4. (7:07) Mid. Easy-going and soulful.
5. (4:59) Mid. Title track. Mean hip vibe.
6. (5:42) Mid. Tenacious rockin’ strut.
7. (6:38) Mid. Soulful testifyin’.
8. (5:46) Slow / Mid. Mellow soulful, gospel vibe.
9. (5:18) Mid. Serious mean romper.
10. (5:06) Mid. Funky struttin’ burner.
11. (6:09) Slow / Mid. EZ mellow soul.
12. (4:29) Mid. Solid soulful glide.
