            WHAT THE PRESS IS WRITING ABOUT... "SWEET POTATO PIE"
   "Sweet Potato Pie has lots of slick blues guitar riffs and flat-out pickin...Burton isn't ultra flashy but plays some really nice riffs...grabs the blues by the short hairs and shakes it....a lot of fun!                 BMANS BLUES REPORT

  "When a new CD from The Charles Burton Blues Band hit this writer's desk, I knew I was in for a good time...I wasn't disappointed. Each and every song is brilliantly written, performed and produced...Sweet Potato Pie is music money very well spent."                                                   BOOMEROCITY


 CHARLES BURTON BLUES BAND  - WEEK OF AUGUST 11-17, ON BLUES DELUXE 
(NATIONALLY-SYNDICATED RADIO SHOW)




"Guitarist Burton is a solid player, but it's his range of music that will please the audience...mixing in the obvious like "Shake Your Hips" by Slim Harpo with obscure gems like "Gangster Of Love" by Johnny Watson, and adding choice recastings like the Classics IV hit "Spooky,"  the Charles Burton Band delivers a fine set that's both satisfying and avoids cliche'."      SAN DIEGO NEWS
