Horsfall Feel The Heat CD

Reviews & Info Trevor Horsfall….expatriate British bluesman now calling Canada home is the author of a fresh, diverse and highly charged Southern Rock Blues CD..."Feel the Heat". An anecdotal collection of songs based on his experiences while touring the southland, the style ranges from country blues with an edge through to power packed, raunchy blues rock. Comparisons are made to artists JJ Cale, Johnny Winter through to Jimi Hendrix. "Feel The Heat" has been released to great fan fare and reviews in both North America and Europe. Horsfall draws his influences from Keith Richards, Jeff Beck, Mark Knoppler, Dave Gilmore, Billy Gibbons, Johnny Winters, Stevie Ray Vaughn and many others. Raised in Blackpool, England, a performing hub for bands such as The Beatles and Stones, the guitar seemed like a natural part of life to Trevor. Being a veteran of the early British Rock & Blues revolution, Horsfall, or "Trevor Luv" as he is affectionately known in the southern states, has spent years honing his craft while touring North America and particularly the Deep South. Enjoying air time in Europe, Australia and the United States, "Feel the Heat" is a must listen for any Blues Rock/Southern Rock enthusiast._________________________________________________________Horsfall's Feel the Heat is a blues infused fret driven collection of songs that over the course of 40 minutes and change covers quite a bit of musical territory. I should start off by stating right up front this disc took me a few spins to appreciate Trevor has one of those voices that took me a few listens to peg. He reminds me a little bit of John Hiatt mixed with bits of Chris Rea . What Trevor Horsfall really brings to the table is his playing: He is a very solid player and when he cuts loose he really is a hell of a picker and Trevor is smart enough as a singer to stay in his comfort zone as a vocalist. There are a few killer tracks on Feel the Heat, and they give the entire disc a lift. "Lone Star Train" is a great groove complete with sound effects. Trevor's fret work brings to mind Knopfler from "Brothers in Arms". "Slippin' and Sliding'" is a smokin' tune and my favourite on the disc. Trevor's voice fits this to a tee, and his playing put a big ass grin on my face. It's a wicked piece of music. "Headin' Home" contains some of the best solo work on the disc and was something you'd expect from David Gilmour. It's really something to hear. I have to say that this is a good album and one I played quite a bit this past month. If blues rock is your thing you'll find quite a bit to like here. You could say "Stratification" is guaranteed.Reviewed March 31, 2009 by, Jevon the Tall banophernalia.com____________________________________________________________Horsfall - Feel The Heat Sound-Check: Editor’s Pick: Blues-Rock .
