Guitarist, singer, song-writer, Terry Garland has assembled a talented group of seasoned session musicians for his sixth release, Rewired. Recorded in Nashville, the artist calls this his return to rock and roll. I call it boogie-woogie blues. It features your standard blues instrumentation, but with boogie-woogie piano replacing the typical harmonica. The mix focuses on the vocals and most of the songs are mid-tempo or slower with the occasional ballad thrown in. For me, this is pretty forgettable stuff. Rebecca Ruth
