Groove - Johnny Childs


The album is called Groove and a groove it has. This cd I have to admit is like nothing I have ever heard. It has it all...quirky lyrics, unconventional delivery, experimental soloing, interesting use of effects with a traditional structure.

The title track has a very ethnic sound and was even gutsy for a concept first cd.

The guitar playing contrasted from precise and tasty to almost spastic... which isn't necessarily bad.

The standout track for me was Thumbs Boogie, a tight instrumental.

Overall "Groove' is an enjoyable recording.
