Live At The Kessler

2016-06-27

A pretty awesome album here. Some really good blues tunes, with Lost of Variety. He does a couple songs from previous albums, obviously since this is live recording. Really good though. I enjoyed tracks 3, 4, 7, 11, 14, and 15 the most. To me it sounded like they have been playing the blues for 1000 years or something. The musicianship is second to none, and they just had the sound dialed in. Really good, pick up for sure.
