Customer Reviews OK but not his best His blues stuff is brilliant, his West Coast style jazz/rock a bit ordinary. Ronnie Earl is a bit in and out for me. So it is for this album - the blues tracks are great, the others so-so. Previous Bullseye albums like Blues & Ballads, and later TELARC stuff like RE & Friends are better. Ronnie Pays Tribute The CD is most instruments except for the tender 'Everyday Kind of Man' sung by Greg Allman, a very underrated blues singer. This is a great CD! Ronnie pays tribute to his influences such as Carlos Santana (you would swear he was on the CD!), Peter Green and others. Lots of different styles and tempos on the album. You will not be disappointed. Also check out Ronnie's excellent Language of Soul CD. Nice to see a local boy do so well. Ronnie is certain one of the best blues guitarist out there today. Buy this CD and enjoy. another guitar god Ronnie Earl plays a sort of improvisational style of blues / jazz with tinges of SANTANA and other wordly flavours. Another master class in guitar playing. He may use some familiar phrasings but always infuses them with enough EARL to make them his own. Some of the songs on this CD seem to be improv sessions and leave the musos with room to move within the loose structure of the compostion, allowing each of these outstanding talents to shine. Just like the listener, these guys are having tons of fun, and isn't that what musik is meant to be all about. Some of the slower pieces bring tears to your eyes, as they are loaded with emotion and RONNIE's guitar is crying in the most pitifull way. If you like the guitar, you simply must have this mans musik. RONNIE EARL is unique in his styling and approach and should therefore be in any guitar fans collection. .
