Robben Ford Mystic Mile
What can you say about robbens playing, he does not disappoint. I've had this tape for quite a while now and wanted to update to a cd. Clean playing, great tone, good songs, great version of political man.


Some of the best modern blues guitar you'll ever hear.
In particular, Worried Life Blues sports one of the most overwhelmingly awesome blues solos you'll ever hear. There are several great cuts on this album, and some incredible playing throughout. That one cut is worth the price of admission.


WOW... nobody plays guitar better
"Politician" is so hot, it jumps off of the CD. This is a MUST HAVE for blues guitar lovers. What a gifted musician Mr. Ford is, and backed by the hottest rhythm section you'll ever hope to hear from a blues band. No wonder Ford keeps getting Grammy nominations!.


Excellent
His singing voice is clean and his guitar work is excellent. I've only recently come accross Robben Ford but I am already building up a collection. The general feel of the album is both bluesey and rocky finishing on a very melow Mystic Mile. Excellent CD.


mystic blues
Ford sound is very elegant, modern and unique. The Mystic Mile exhibits Robben Ford's precision at playing smooth sophisticated blues. This cd may be one of his best, demonstrating his song writing abilities as well as skill with the guitar. Most of the songs are written by Ford and they work cohesively to give the whole cd a somewhat "mystic" sound. The title cut, which wraps up the cd of 10 tracks,is perhaps the most mystical. It creates a vision of a mystic who is watching us, with a "strange sense of humor. " Of the cover songs Politician written in '68, by Jack Bruce and Peter Brown is still true and relevant song today of political people trying to work both sides.

If you like a more sophisticated blues with strong guitar work, this is a cd for you.
