I first heard this band in a small blues bar in Vegas in June, 98. I bought Hot Shot, I wore it out, I need a new one, and I have to order more for friends that have heard it. You can't go wrong with Little Mike and the Tornadoes!!!

It used to be true that you could tell where a Blues artist came from by listening to their tone and style. Since the advent of the recorded era and the ever-spreading influence of the major Blues styles, great Chicago-style Blues players have spring up from New York and Florida to California, Japan and Europe. Little Mike and the Tornadoes is a good example.

Little Mike Markowitz was born in Queens, New York, but his harmonica palying sounds as if he spent his entire life on Chicago's South Side. The players on this recording are as tight as any neighborhood band working to pay the rent and put food on the table. Mike has obviously done a hell of lot of listening. His harmonica playing is tight and has a great tone.

For fans of Chicago-style Blues playing, this is CD is definitely worth a listen.

First saw Little Mike and the Tornadoes in Orlando, Fla. and they Rocked the House! Aspiring Blues artists can only hope to be equal, nothing more. Buy all Their CD's and you will get the dullest party jumpin'. Outstandinding!

Little Mike is simply amazing on harp. A wonderful album. You can't go wrong with Little Mike - this CD really grows on you.
