“For much of Kim Wilson's musical career he was the original harmonica player for the legendary Texas band, The Fabulous Thunderbirds. Some say it was Jimmie Vaughn's work at the heart of that group, but l'm convinced that it was Wilson's harp that set the tone and muscle for that group. It was his wailing yet controlled playing that set that group apart from most blues band throughout the '70s and '80s. This second solo offering clearly shows him to have the feel and energy, plus the musical acumen and virtuosity, necessary to be declared one of the best blues harp players on the scene today.”

 

Harking back to 1994 for this weeks BWAF Classic Album Feature with Kim Wilsons 2nd release for Antones records “That’s Life”.

Plus new releases Shemekia Copeland, Albert Castiglia, Jontavious Willis, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Frank Sultana, Colin James, Mark Hummel and Tab Benoit.
