Chris Cain: Chris Cain 2-21-2021

This week’s Blues Album of the week is Chris Cain:  Chris Cain.  Released in 2017 on his own label,  this is rich, jazz-infused blues in a big band setting, very reminiscent of BB King, Bobby Blue Bland.
Some highlights:  
Meanest Woman in Town;  upbeat, jump blues, guitar tone and style very much in the  BB King vein.
Tell Tale Signs;   grab a bourbon, cigarette, sit down at the bar and just drift away.  Lovely tone and phrasing.  And do not miss that piano, glorious.
Evil Minded Woman;  hard-core,  juke joint blues,  in the Howlin Wolf tradition.
Kidney Stew;   jazzy, upbeat, infectious swing groove
Give Chris Cain a listen, good stuff for the ears, great for roadtrips.
Enjoy.
