“These St. Louis musicians — a tight and very hot ensemble of musicians — are the real deal, and their three-part harmonies are exceptional. Aguirre also adds a three piece horn section to great effect. They all hail from St. Louis and it’s a deep blues music tradition. They do a wonderful job delivering contemporary blues that grab the Listener and won’t let go. Eight originals and three nice covers make for a special album that I thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommend.”
“Big Mike Aguirre: a Singing Ray of Sunshine; a pillar of the St. Louis blues scene; cradled and rocked in all of America’s roots — meaning old school blues, rhythm and blues, soul, and everything in between — that mixed and matched around the Mississippi River; a guy who learned the hard way. Il nous envoie direct dans le tronche la rondelle qui fait mouche en nous trimballant les ouies au gre d’une variation de rythmes… “Monstrous” “Amazing” “Beautiful” “Not-heard-of””
