Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band Live In Chicago (CD)

(Music On CD) 14 tracks

Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band's 'LIVE! In Chicago' is a live album that serves up several masters at once. It documents guitarist Shepherd and vocalist Noah Hunt, backed by the well-rehearsed Double Trouble rhythm section - drummer Chris Whipper Layton and bassist Tommy Shannon.

They are backed by veterans Buddy Flett and Bryan Lee. Lead singer Noah, sounding better than ever, has to take a back seat for much of the album to make room for guest stars, Chicago legends Hubert Sumlin and Willie "Big Eyes" Smith, who deliver a stellar performance, with Kenny's accompanying fat Strat tone shooting into the stratosphere!

All in all, a galaxy of excellent support acts producing a unique and glorious blues event.
