Robben Ford great Guitar
Love his music. Robben Ford can really play the guitar and his smooth voice make listening to these songs a pleasure. I have several of his CD's which are hard to get in a store so Amazon is the place to shop. .


Blue Moon, my review from Barcelona
This record 'Blue Moon' as all his others you must listen it with attention to grasp the lot of quality the record emits and the great guitar work that on the other hand is already usual and gets very high level as ever. I've got most Robben's Ford discography and telling the truth is very very good since he started with THE CHARLES FORD BAND following with contributions with his brothers PATRICK and above all with MARK and finishing with the already very extensive discography under his own name is really a pleasure to listen this so peculiar MODERN ELECTRIC BLUES where he blends several concepts of this music environment as is JAZZ-FUSION and BLUES-ROCK among others.
As a vocalist he favors an exciting blend of Blues, Blues-Rock and Soul mainly on tracks like "Something from the pain", "Don't deny your love" and Big Maceo Merriweather's "The way you treated me". Also has more Jazz tinged vocals offering on tracks like the superb Willie Dixon's "It don't make Sense (You can't make peace)" or "Make me your only one" another jewel. Another wonderful song is that the open the record Little Walter's "Up the line" and I want to tell that "Good to love" I like it very much is a special song. This is not a Blues purist record but it keeps the basic roots. In a short words great stuff, exceptional performance and highly recommended. I give it 4,5 stars.

another great jammin' buddy
Sure, not every tune is perfect but darn close. I've had this cd for a few years and really like it.

Some people pick on Robben's vocals but I think thats BS. To me his voice fits what he plays,and Peter Green to me is another example of this. I mean what do you want,a strainiac like BonJovi, Axl Rose or Daughtry??? No thanks. (Anyone who is looking for insturmental Robben may want check out "Tiger Walk". More funky than blusey but still a solid cd). ("Update time-4/3/08"-I took my wife to see Bon Jovi and Daughtry last night at the HP Pavillion and both acts were outstanding. )

If you play guitar do yourself a favor buy this, give it a listen, dial up a nice fat tone and believe me two seconds into track one you'll be smilin' and jammin' with it and just about every track on this cd. I know because I do.


Booooring
I can't beleive someone hasn't broke the news to Robben that HE CAN'T SING FOR S**T. Great guitarist with a terrible voice. At least Joe Satriani got a clue. Some artists who suffer from this affliction have learned to limit the damage by accentuiating the positive but not Robben. Too bad because, again, he is a very gifted guitarist with who feels the rhythm and soul of the guitar. I wouldn't buy more of his stuff right now. .


When is the tour?
Like most of RF's albums, it keeps getting better each time you listen to it. Perhaps not excellent, but still a really good record from Robben Ford.
