This review is from: Blues Blast (Audio CD)
Debbie Davies has released many CDs over the years, but this one clearly stands out. Often these types of CDs, which involve a 'Who's Who' of contemporary blues artists, do not live up to expectations -- this one is definitely an exception. Put Davies together with Musselwhite, Benoit, and Montoya and sparks fly. Debbie wrote 4 of the 9 songs, while the rest are covers. The 'A.C. Strut' with Coco Montoya is a tribute to Debbie's mentor, Albert Colins, and it really rocks. Listen to Musselwhite on 'Movin' and Groovin' and you will soon understand why he is often referred to as "the Dean of Blues Harmonica" -- outstanding. Tab does a great rendition of Hooker's 'Crawling King Snake' with his Louisiana swamp style, as he is joined by Debbie. On 'Sonoma Sunset,' the 10 minute finale, all 4 come together to create a masterful ending to a great blues CD. Debbie and Tab take on Howlin' Wolf's, 'Howlin' For My Darlin' and the results are stellar. You also have to love Debbie, Charlie, Tab, and Coco on 'Like You Was Gone' -- whew (!) great stuff.
As with all Telarc recordings the sound is outstanding on this CD. This CD is a winner from beginning to end -- all 9 songs are done with tremendous blues styling by some of the very best in the world. Fifty-three minutes of pure blues. Highly recommended. Quick note: you also get to hear the great Bruce Katz on the B3 organ, Rod Carey on bass, and Per Hanson on drums -- what an additional supporting cast!

Debbie Davis Rocks,
By
This review is from: Blues Blast (Audio CD)
I have followed Debbie Davies career since she broke away from Albert Collins to establish her own solo career. She is an unparelled guitar virtuoso. Many up an coming guitar players asked Albert for the opportuniy to unseat Debbie as Alberts lead guitar player. He said that "if you can play better than Debbie, you can have the job". No one ever did. Debbie not only can play but she is excellent in her original interpretations of many of the old blues standards. I have every CD that she has recorded. This CD "Blues Blast" is one of her best. It includes collaberation with mega blues stars Charlie Musselwhite, Coco Montoya and Tab Benoit. It is a must have for any serious blues fan.

Debbie Davies Scores Another Hit!,
By
This review is from: Blues Blast (Audio CD)
Debbie Davies can be guaranteed to turn out a consistant product every time. She is the Cream-of-the-Crop
of the female blues guitarist out there today. All her albums are excellent, and this is no exception. If you like listening to quality guitar work, you will love this CD.
