At first glace, the combination of blues-roots guitarists Tab Benoit and Jimmy Thackery doesn't seem like a logical one. Both are barnstorming bandleaders, and Benoit's clipped Louisiana Telecaster would appear to be at odds with Thackery's tougher Strat attack. But, as 2002's Whiskey Store collaboration proved, the duo's strengths complement, even invigorate each other. The resulting tour is captured here, in all its volatile glory. Both headliners, along with gutsy saxist Jimmy Carpenter and dynamic B3 organist Ken Faltinson, are in smashing form. As you would expect, the studio work is expanded, extended, and juiced with additional moonshine for the live experience. Benoit's more palatable vocals dominate, and his gripping version of Otis Redding's "These Arms of Mine" is the show's most emotionally stirring performance. But blues guitar lovers aren't aboard just for the poignant moments; they want pyrotechnics, which are abundantly provided as well. From the fiery double-time explosion of a nine-minute "Bayou Boogie" to the feverish swamp funk of "Bone Pickin'" and the stealthy, slow burn of the title track, this is a breathtaking picking extravaganza offering plentiful proof of each artist's speed, dexterity and collaborative discipline. --Hal Horowitz

loved this album. fabulous sound, strong guitars, made me want to dance. If you like either of these guys doing their own thing, you'll love this combination.

I saw Whiskey Store Live at Ft. Lauderdale Riverwalk Blues & Music Festival and was "blown away". Fantastic in a word. The Whiskey Store Live CD is just like being live in concert with them. The CD & music is "Smokin Hot". The CD should be in every blues lovers CD collection. Crank it up and let the music fly, you will tell all your blues lover friends to buy it.
