Title: Barn-burning blues
Product review: Ohio guitarist Sonny Moorman shines on this top notch collection of blues and bars rock numbers that pretty much covers the bases from slow, mean blues to rapid-fire riffs to rockabilly tinged tunes.He mines quite a bit of rock history here, showing great taste in his influences: early Fleetwood Mac (during the Peter Green days), Rory Gallagher, Clapton (way back when), Mayall, ZZ Top, and Robin Trower all come to mind.Throughout, Mr. Moorman's energy is undiminished, and if one wants to argue that his sound is a bit raw, I'll take the spirit and fire here anyway over the polished pabulum the record companies try to force feed us.One wonders why Mr. Moorman has not achieved greater recognition given the void still left from Stevie Ray's untimely passage.Give this one a listen and play it loud.
