How I Go - CD

'How I Go', boasts as much balls as any blues-rock album in recent memory. The boogie-down masters, bassist Tommy Shannon and drummer Chris "Whipper" Layton (the legendary rhythm section of Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble), are heavier than ever as they stomp their way through the album. You get long time member Noah Hunt singing lead vocals at his best. Opening with a Keith Richards-esque riffed "Never Lookin' Back", "Come On Over" rumbles along. The covers are delivered with gusto and passion, of which we have "Yer Blues" (Beatles), "Oh Pretty Woman" (Albert King) and an all-out stomping rendition of Bessie Smith's "Backwater Blues", which really needs to be heard to be believed. The album is produced by Talking Heads' Jerry Harrison.
