 4.5 stars. Mar 18, 2005
I must admit I had always thought Keb Mo was a little generic as a blues artist until I came across this CD in Scorcese box set. Put it in the CD player just to get a little better idea about where Keb is coming from and man was I surprised. This is really good. His cover of Robert Johnson's "Come In My Kitchen" is probably the best cover of this song I have ever heard. "Henry" is probably my favorite, just a nice smooth relaxing song. This is a good CD to listen to on summer night, it just sounds like summer to me. All in all I'm glad I gave this CD a chance because now I see Keb is a really great modern blues artist and there aren't many of those around now.

 PURE BLUES AND AWESOME!!! Jan 12, 2005
I love blues and believe it or not, its my first Keb' Mo' cd. Where have I been and what was I thinking? This is one of the greatest blues cd's I have EVER heard. Its just blues in its purest form - simple, yet soul-ful, and so much meat it in, it takes time to digest it all. The arrangements are excellent - the piano or electric guitar will come in to enhance the mood or the lyrics. Its so wonderful that you HAVE to pay attention to it! You'll find that he pulls you in from whatever you are doing, to stop and listen. And what a voice - he was born to sing the blues! I'm overwhelmed - excellent musicians, great song choices, clever arrangements. This cd has it all! Next time Mr. Mo' is in town, I will be front and center! This cd is a fine wine, so sip it slowly and enjoy!
