Title: For fans of good music, period.
Review: I admit, I was a tad skeptical going into the purchase of this album. I've been a Hot Rize fan for some time now, but have generally kept away from Red Knuckles based on the thought of it tainting the image in my brain of the tight, flawless grass band that is Hot Rize. What I found upon first listen, and something that strengthens with each listen, is that not only do Red Knuckles play western swing, or rockabilly, or whatever you want to call it, but they do it as good or better than any band my ears have ever heard. Case in point, just sample "Wabash Cannonball." What you'll find are tight rhythms, thumping bass lines and a voice that seems so incredibly fit for the style of music, you'll wonder what it's been doing servicing itself to bluegrass. Is Red Knuckles better than Hot Rize? I think it's apples and oranges, but what I can say is that both bands deserve a listen, if for anything, to witness a phenomenal band at its best.
