Really good!
This is a "full" 5 stars brilliant blues album. You cannot really ask for any better than this. Johnny vocals are top of the range and with the great Duke Robillard taking the lead on most of the tracks this is just a must have album for all the real blues fans out there. If you are really deep into the blues do not hesitate and add this one to your collection, you will never regret it.
