On Renegade Gentleman, Larry Carlton joins with Terry McMillan for a Southern Rock affair with excellent blues overtones.  Anyone familiar with Carlton knows that he is ever changing and always growing as a guitarist.  Whether it's an acoustic outing such as "Alone But Never Alone" or "Minute by Minute", electric pop such as "Kid Gloves" or in combination with other greats such as Steve Lukather, you usually get something a little different and more refined with each release.  This time out, Carlton has joined with Terry McMillian and has gone in yet another direction.  McMillian is a blues harpist that has played with Neil Young, Ray Charles and Jerry Lee Lewis to name but a few.  His style is reminiscent of Little Walter or John Mayall and he blows with authority.  To ensure the proper blues flavor, Double Trouble's Chris Layton appears on drums for five of the discs eleven numbers.  All original compositions and the combination here is potent and extremely satisfying.
