While
not a blues CD this 2-CD release (their 5th)
is fun listening for all and includes great
covers from the 50's, 60's, 70's, Motown, R&B,
Oldies, Classics, and Rock & Roll. Both
Mama and I enjoyed this recording a bunch, we
had this on in the car for a short trip and
sang along to most songs. Check out their site
