Ronnie Earl Now My Soul CD - Import

 Blues album of the year!
This album by Ronnie Earl and his latest incarnation of the broadcasters is an exhilarating listen. This is music from the heart, soul, and mind of Earl and musicians that have transcended the ordinary to connect with the listener on a lot of different levels. Dave Limina's B3 grooves are sublime. A great guest lineup including Kim Wilson help fuel the fire.

 He Just Keeps Getting Better
Ronnie Earl is without doubt the best blues guitarist around at the moment. He has it all. Since he started producing predominantly instrumental blues albums some years ago, he has set a very high standard in quality blues recordings. The last few albums have had a smattering of vocals. This time around half the tracks have vocals. It was an inspired choice having Kim Wilson on four of them. Kim proves to be the perfect vocal partner to Ronnie’s fantastic guitar work. There is the added bonus of Kim’s top-notch harp playing. Ronnie Earl is comfortable in any musical style or tempo He is truly the master of his instrument. Greg Piccolo is on board for a vocal on one track. His singing has improved out of sight. He also plays great sax on another track. Dave Limina on organ and piano, Jimmy Mouradian on bass and Lorne Entress on drums are Ronnie’s newest Broadcasters and have settled in very comfortably as the rhythm section. But the highlight as always with a Ronnie Earl recording is his terrific tasty fretwork. Not many artists can put out a recording of new material and maintain quality over much more than 50 minutes. This album is more than 70 minutes and it wasn’t long enough! Quality and quantity. Who could ask for anything more? I envy the new listener who discovers Ronnie Earl for the first time and has the opportunity to delve into his back catalogue.

 Smooth, Blue and "Kim fueled".
Tone, touch and emotion, Ronnie has it all. A distintive guitar voice in an ever increasing homoginized and profit drivin music environment. With Kim Wilson on harpand vocals, this disc won't be coming out of my deck anytime soon. I appreciate the heart drivin as opposed to testosterone drivin music here. Do not deny yourself, purchase this CD. peace, baby
