Lamont Live!, September 29, 2004
This review is from: Lamont Live! (Audio CD)
"The blues movement has ranks of talented and accomplished performers. Most, however, are great imitators and not really innovators. A few, Robert Cray, Blues Traveler and Pat Hayes, leader of The Lamont Cranston Blues Band, are the ones who respect traditional artists but are not content to merely remind us of blues heritage. Pat Hayes is one of the select few who creates and innovates. His harmonica, guitar and vocals, although happily reminiscent of the finest Chicago-style players, have advanced the Cranston band to a distinct execution and style unlike any other heard in contemporary blues music. A premiere band of the American Midwest, no one infects venues with the party virus quite like Pat Hayes and The Lamont Cranston Blues Band. They've always been my favorite!" - Elwood Blues (aka Dan Akroyd)
