5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Telecaster playing, February 4, 2008

By	Michael J. Thorp "telemaniac" (Jacksonville, Fl. USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've had this cd for years. I can't remember how I even found out about it, but I can tell you I am a huge fan of all things country telecaster playing. I am writting this review of a thirteen year old album because it is such a great play. I just listened to it four times in two days because it's that good. It is country, it is soul. Production is clean and not overdone, Duke's guitar tone is beautiful (clean and dirty) and his phrasing and writting is very strong. I like every cut. I have about as deep a collection of Nashville tele style cd's as you can get, both classic and current artists. This is just a superb effort, and one deserving of being played at 11 at home or on the road.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!, March 21, 2005

By	Pat (Wellington, NZ) - See all my reviews

This is simply amazing stuff. Other revieweers have mentioned his Country Side, and wheras there is a fair slice in this recording (and his others) I hear lots of other influences; Blues, Rock and a bit of Jazz.
At the end of the day this guy is hard to classify. A close comparison is Johnny A.

But back to Duke; this is his 4th (yes 4th!!, more on that later) solo outing, but sadly has not recorded anthing solo as of late. Each of his recordings are worthwhile; simply fantastic guitar playing.

The tracks on this Recording are great; the haunting sound of Mr John; the Blues/Rock of Low Lonesome; the soul (sic) of Soul Miner, and a remake of Deep Blue from the phantom 4th album; Guitar Talk.

Guitar Talk was his first recording and is simply unheard of; when I loaded this particular CD into my PC; cd db had no record of it; Amazon doesn't sell it, and has never sold it; and it appears to be simply unavailable, but strangely not even acknowledged. Curious. And wouldn't you know it; it is a great album too.

Enjoy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Duke Levine rips, March 10, 1999

By A Customer

Duke Levine struts some hot licks and incredible tones on Country Soul Guitar. The title of the cd says it all, soulful country with outstanding musicianship.This isn,t your typical truck stop country either,it's engaging instrumentals that will make guitar officianados drool.
