Title: Run Of The Mill Blues!
Review: There are plenty of average blues bands on the scene that produce fairly good quality, sometimes enjoyable CD's and then there is BackBone Slip. It is hard to find any redeeming quality about this disc. The cover's of JB Lenoir's "Mama, Talk To Your Daughter", Ray Charles "A Fool For You" and Jimmy Reed's "Bright Lights, Big City" are performed with absolutely no enthusiasm or feeling. You get the impression that these guys are merely going through the motions. The covers of Son Terry's "Walk On" and Joe William's "Big Legged Woman", while slightly better can only be described as mediocre. The CD includes two bonus songs only available on the CD, wow!. Those two songs are Frank Zappa's (that's right, Frank Zappa) "Trouble Everyday" and Percy Mayfield's "Dangerzone". both songs will make you wish you purchased the cassette. Blue Wave has a stable of talented musicians. Unfortunately, this group is not one of them. Two stars is being generous!
