With a lot of popular session musicians, there comes a time when they have to make a solo album-if anything, just to prove to themselves they are capable of stepping out front. In the main, these albums are unremitting garbage. Looking at the list of musicians on this album sent up warning flares from the off - members of Duran Duran, Faithless, Groove Armada, Primal Scream and Medicine Head have all worked on this album. However, this time around, the sessioneer du jour has actually got a fine set of songs to deliver, and has some great ideas as to how to present them.This isn't the usual stroke-fest of average songs and poor vocals, but rather has some supurb guitar work, decent songs and his vocals are at worst fair and, on a few songs, he shows that he can actually sing! But the guitar-oh boy, this guy has got chops like a Barnsley lamb and more than enough talent to use them in the right places. There is a lot of funk and soul in here but it is all shot through with a solid Bluesy undertone. 'New Soul Brother', 'Vanity', and 'Dr Feel' all show his guitar at its best, and the wah-wah work on 'Dr Feel' brought Stevie Ray Vaughan to mind. Yeah, this is a sessioneers solo-album but, based on this, he might just have a new day-job. (Andy Snipper, Blues Matter)
