If you've never heard this guy, now's the time,

Anthony Gomes is one of the best guitarists I have ever seen and heard, and I've seen and heard the greats. His showmanship is exceptional if you have the chance to see him live. This album shows another side of him "a softer side" if you will. His songs are well written and his playing is magnificent. If you want to hear some of the best acoustic blues played by a newcomer, this is it.

Gomes Unplugged!,
By deepbluereview "deepbluereview" (SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sweet Stringin Soul (Audio CD)
With two exceptional electric CD's under his belt, Gomes decided to change the pace a little and cut an all acoustic CD. Johnny Winter once stated that performing an all acoustic CD was the hardest thing he had ever done and he never did it again. In contrast, Gomes says it was fairly easy and fun to do. Whether he will ever do another is left to be seen. This CD features 13 original numbers mostly performed in a hand clapping, soulful gospel blues style. There are, however, a couple of more traditional delta blues numbers such as "Heartbreak Train", "Please be Mine" and "Wolf in the Henhouse" and a playful number "Hamhock Booty" to keep the listener interested. This is an excellent CD which should not be overlooked. |
