no such thing as a bad Johnny Adams album May 16, 2006

Great blues selections by Johnny Adams on this CD. His voice is so smooth and melodious. Pleae note: this CD is a compilation of "blues" songs recorded by Johnny Adams from his Rounder Records CD's, so if you are planning ot buy them all, then this one becomes superfluous.

This is a "full" 5 stars brilliant blues album. You cannot really ask for any better than this. Johnny vocals are top of the range and with the great Duke Robillard taking the lead on most of the tracks this is just a must have album for all the real blues fans out there. If you are really deep into the blues do not hesitate and add this one to your collection, you will never regret it.
