Although this CD is fairly hard to find anymore, any blues lover will really get a kick out of this collection. The Kentucky Headhunters are primarily a country/rockabilly outfit, but are musical chameleons who can change genres in an eyeblink. Johnnie Johnson has teamed up with the Headhunters and made a really fun blues album. This CD is still one of my favorites even though it has been out for several years now. My only criticism is that as a singer, Johnnie is a pretty good piano player. The KH's do most of the vocal work here though. If you don't think blues can be fun, check out "She's Got To Have It". Seek out this CD - It's a good one.

This is a terrific CD full of pleasure for any country, blues and rock fan. The pairing of Johnnie Johnson and the Kentucky Headhunters worked to make one great country/blues/rock release. What is most impressive is that the record is accessible for any level fan of this type of music--you don't have to be some diehard to enjoy the CD. I really loved the title cut "That'll Work" which like the rest of the CD is full of good music, fun and a complete joy.

I really am puzzled why the record company doesn't make this available on a limited basis for the fans. I'm sure a lot of fans of either Johnnie or the Headhunters would love to hear this now rare and hard to get CD. Lucky for me I bought it when it first came out nearly 10 years ago.

If you love true R&B at its very, very best then you will love every single second of every track on this fantastic album. It just doesnt get any better than this

I picked this up when it came out, excited about the first two Kentucky Headhunters albums and with a growing appreciation for blues. Several songs are solid--"I Know You Can" may be one of my favorite songs of all time, and I'm an avid music fan with diverse taste--but hearing the album again now, there are a couple songs that date themselves with the 80s rock sax solos. Surprised that didn't strike me back in the mid-90s. Johnnie Johnson is fantastic, though, and the honkytonk blues piano is a great match with the Headhunters' dixie fried country. The two songs where Johnson has lead vocals, and the several instrumentals, are worth the purchase.

Great Job! I've been looking for this CD for a long time and now I have it back in my collection. Great CD for anyone that likes "Old School" Rock and Roll/ Blues piano. The Kentucky Headhunter are a great band for those unfamiliar. I'd recommend your service to anyone for those that are having a hard time finding things such as this CD. Thanks Again!
