Summary: Great Moments Only 2008-08-19
Comment: Buddy Guy remains one of the few artists that I actually track CD release dates. Silvertone has done wonders for his well deserved career creating some of the best music regardless of preference for blues or guitar rock.
The first half of this CD is terrific, especially the first two tracks- a classic, paint peeling Buddy jam followed by a great ensemble with Trucks and Tedeschi. My interest faded over the second half of the disc and I started to wonder where my copies of Sweet Tea, Slippin' In and Feels Like Rain had gone. Good but not great.

Summary: Smooth as silk 2008-08-18
Comment: Buddy's voice is still as smooth as silk. His voice is really show-cased on the tune, Skin Deep. Overall, just an excellent CD.

Summary: Extremely Disappointing 2008-08-08
Comment: This is an extremely disappointing record, featuring tons of filler and four good songs: "Best Damn Fool", "Out In The Woods", "I Found Happiness", and the wonderful "Lyin' Like A Dog". The rest of the album is plagued by Eric Clapton turning in tons of cheezy lyrics and vocal lines, Susan Tedeschi adding a definite pop element to the disc, a duet with Buddy and young Quinn which amounts to nothing more than rattling off a list of Blues legends, and a 1980s-style power ballad called "Skin Deep". Buddy Guy is seventy-two years old and we don't know how much longer he'll be with us. His record company is obviously clueless as to what to do with him, and if, as Buddy alleges, he had a strong hand in producing this album and writing its material, he needs to stop writing for Blues-Rock audiences and start writing for Blues audiences. I've made numerous comments on numerous people's reviews for this album, and nobody has made any sense at all in their rebuttals. I am not harping on the fact that this album is a disappointment because I dislike Buddy Guy or think that all reviewers are retarded; I am wondering why, after two-plus years of promises from the great Buddy Guy, we're left with less than half a record. One would think that Marshall Chess produced this mess.
