Unlike his previous session for Linn, this trio CD (with bassist Dave Green and drummer Allan Ganley) strikes a balance between well played standards and upbeat catchy originals. "Angel Eyes" is almost a mandatory ballad for a pianist to play at some time -- Newton's very soft approach would hush the nosiest audience. A lengthy workout of Mal Waldron's "Soul Eyes" and a brief take on the nearly forgotten showtune "Stars in My Eyes" merit praise. Among Newton's works, the strutting opener "Ol' Blue Eyes" and the turbocharged title track stand out. ~ Ken Dryden

| | Maynard Brothers Band CD (2001)
Eye Witness album
$12.55 On their self-titled album, the Johnsonville, New York-based Maynard Brothers Band delivered a robust mix of rough blues and blistering rock, never fully delving into one without exploring the fringes of the other. The trio played with a tightness and intensity not often found on debut recordings, which isn't surprising given that the group's members had played for 30 years around upstate New York before making it into the studio. Performances are fine throughout - Erv Maynard's manic guitar solo on I Want to Be Your Man evokes prime Johnny Winter, and drummer Harold Reiser keeps a dependable groove -- but what set the disc apart from other regional blues releases was the quality of Maynard's compositions. The richness of metaphor in Don't Call It Love, the wry vulnerability of Better Things to Do, and the uncanny mood-setting of No Devils pointed to a songwriter not content to stay within the increasingly narrow confines of standard blues-rock fare. The Maynards' vocals, while adequate, hadn't quite caught up with the other aspects of their musicianship; still, the band's debut showed that roadhouse raunch didn't have to be puerile, and it did so without sacrificing fierceness or grit. ~ Kenneth Bays
:: ------ Latest News ------ ::The Maynard Brothers Band latest CD, "Honeymoon In Meatland" is done and here at CDBaby. Check It Out!:: ------------------------- ::BLUES REVUEThe Maynard Brothers CD review by Kenneth Bays, Senior Editor, Blues Revue June, 2001"These days, it's a miracle when a new band comes along who's interested in writing songs that transcend cliche. Subtlety isn't exactly a hot commodity in today's blues climate, so acts rarely have an incentive to explore the deeper elements of songcraft. Apparently no one told guitarist Erv Maynard that. On his band's debut, Maynard pens a dozen or so tunes that are smart, nuanced and original. With brother Jeff on vocals and bass, and family friend Harold "Clutch" Reiser on drums, the Maynards come across as a tight, flexible outfit with bar-band-grown-up charm. (And in fact, the members of the group have been performing around their home base of Johnsonville, N.Y., for nearly 30 years.) Despite their facility as musicians and a team - Jeff's bass lines are always fresh, and Reiser holds any groove steady - Erv's songs remain the centerpiece. He could probably work as a writer-for-hire at any respectable blues label. Originality, of course, doesn't necessarily mean abandoning tradition. The acoustic "Down To The River" repeats a familiar blues tale of murder and demon-haunted guilt, but it's dark melody and guest Tony Perrino's B-3 underpinning raise it a cut above the rest; the song also features Jeff's best vocals. And "Call The Warden" is pure slow blues anguish in 12 bars, with Erv's pained guitar solos telling the death-row story more succinctly than the lyrics ...
