I am a huge Duke Robillard fan. I waited and waited for this album when I found out it was coming out. I bought it the day it came out and was totally disappointed. I know Duke is known for his wide range of styles but nothing on this disc did anything for me. Keep in mind this is my opinion but I have alot of what he has recorded solo and as guest appearances. Pick up Dukes Blues if you are a first timer. If you aren't....post your comments on this site.

1.0 out of 5 stars I have to agree, August 26, 2000

Wow, I have to agree...this isn't Duke's best by any stretch of the imagination. A few of the cuts are pretty decent but too much time is spent with songs that are just plain odd. We love Duke for his guitar stylings, not this kind of thing. Actually, the new Robert Charels CD "Metropolitan Blue" that Robilard produced or the work he did with Herb Ellis is much closer to a classic Duke or Roomful album than this is. I bet Duke bounces back strong though because he truly is one of the greats.

Being a Duke Robillard fan for the last years it's a pleasure to listen to each new work from the duke. He becomes better and better with each release, in case you like jump blues and not the rocking edge of blues. So if you want to have a strong jump blues record with soulful vocals and virtuos guitar playin buy this one and you will have a great time with this record and wont stop listening to it.
