Blues

This new three-piece act from Chicago delivers one of the hottest and diverse blues rock albums in the history of the rock genre. Led by Glenn Kaiser, these guys present 14 gutty, gritty rock blues jams that meld message to the boogie. . . . what adds depth t the fiery music is the rough and gritty vocal delivery of Kaiser. Add urging lyrics that explore loneliness, emptiness, and fast lane, cold weather, death, the dive scene, and spirituality. . . . This is an excellent blues rock CD with great songs, solid musically, varied moods, and raspy but strong vocals. A big winner It'll make a top addition to any collection.

My heroes have always been hairy Lassie, Chewbacca, Glenn Kaiser! Whether pumping out radical rock with Resurrection Band or singing the blues on his own, Kaiser has always maintained a passionate approach to his music making with an uncompromising message. He's been a man who's lived out his faith and consequently the music he makes is always packed with the grittier realities of life - perfect fodder for the blues. 'Winter Sun' sees him adopting a power trio format supported by Roy Montroy on bass and drummer Ed Bialach for some intense blues rock. As witnessed at various festival appearances this summer, this is intense stuff! There are plenty of highlights from the walking blues vibe of "Choked Up" through the blistering guitar rock of "My Backyard" as he describes, with brutal honesty, his life in Chicago. The title track has a solo blues imtro before the band kick in and the whole thing explodes whilst at the other extreme "Three Below Zero" is classic foot stomping Kaiser acoustic blues. "In The Soul Of A Man" demonstrates something it's easy to overlook - Kaiser is a killer guitar player! Of course, no blues album in this powerful trio format would be complete without a rendition of Blind Willie Johnson's "Nobody's Fault But Mine", and this one spits and burns. If you're a blues fan, this is essential listening.
Put them on a stage next to any blues act in the world and Kaiser & Co would easily hold their own.
