Another great album from the "Master".,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Duke Robillard's World Full of Blues (Audio CD)
Duke Robillard is in my opinion one of the best white blues guitarists around. He is able to play every style of blues effortless always with stunning results. Both in his solo carrier and with the groups he played with, he has always been able to deliver extremely good results, playing the blues with his own personality and feeling but at the same time with great respect for the masters of the past. Having said that, I believe that if you love the blues you cannot go wrong when you decide to purchase a Duke's album. "World full of blues" is a kind (a bit as Guitar groove-a-rama) of celebration of all the different areas of blues and blues related music that have influenced his sound throughout the years. The entire album, more that 115 minutes of music, is played extremely well by all the musicians involved in the project, most of who have been played with Duke Robillard for years: Mark Teixeira, Doug James, Al Basile, Marty Ballou, "Sax" Gordon Beadle and "Sugar" Ray Norcia contribute, among many others, to the brilliant final result. In conclusion another Duke's great performance that surely deserve the attention of all the blues aficionados.

Double Shot OF Duke!,
This review is from: Duke Robillard's World Full of Blues (Audio CD)
To the "reviewer" from Alabama calling Mr. Robillard's new record "artificial"? You didn't even listen to the cd. Skimming through some sound bites is an artificial listening experience akin to being an informed voter by watching a few campaign ads. I purchased this cd recently and I'm enjoying it thoroughly. This is Duke's most versatile and expansive set so far and he sounds right at home playing all of it. From the low down blues of T-Bone Walker to the after hours jazz balladry of Buddy Johnson, Duke sounds like he's having a ball. There's even a catchy Motown style original number called Sweet Thing that Duke pulls off convincingly with his ample charm. Other highlights include the Bob Dylan tune Everthing Is Broken, done deliciously down 'n' dirty, Wardell Grey's Stoned, and Duke's funky original Six Inch Heels, accented by the baritone sax of Doug James. And that's just the first cd! It's pretty much a no-brainer for Robillard fans. Two blues drenched cds for the price of one!

This review is from: Duke Robillard's World Full of Blues (Audio CD)
I've been listening to blues for about 35 years, and Duke for about 20. Yeah, I hear "That's not traditional Blues", "That's not Blues Rock", "That's not Chicago Blues", and occasionally I hear "Now THAT'S T-BONE!"... and for any given single cut they can all be true. As a previous review said, he does it all.This isn't his best in my opinion, but it still beats the snot out of a poke in the eye! Keep playin' Duke... I'll keep buyin! And come back to Louisville some time soon. We miss ya!
