I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Full Tilt, by Peter Veteska & Blues Train and the name fits perfectly. Opening with, blues rocker, Go Find Another Man, Peter Veteska gets this band cranking. With strong vocals and firm guitar lead, Mikey Jr. on harmonica, Alex D'Agnese on drums, Coo Moe Jhee on bass, and Jeff Levine on B3 these guy have a solid groove. On slow blues, Sad And Blue Jeff Levine creates a warm, B3 environment for Veteska's lead vocal and nicely phrased guitar lead. With only rim shots by D'Agnese and Rick Prince on bass, this is a great radio track. Hard driving, 2:00 in the Morning, has a terrific thumping bass line by Chuck Hearne working with Levine's B3 and Veteska shares the mic with Jen Barnes. A ripping guitar solo by Veteska sets this track off nicely. Take Back What You Own is one of my favorite tracks on the release with it's R&B, "Mustang Sally" vibe. With Ghee and D'Agnese setting the rhythm and Levine warming it up, Veteska and Barnes do a real nice job on vocal. Veteska unleashes the guitar on Slow Down You Crazy Fool, setting up his best vocals on the release. With it's solid blues formatting, and a real nice B3 solo by Levine, another of my favorites on the release. Wrapping the release is Moore's Merry Christmas Baby, probably seasonal when the release hit the market. Veteska does a real nice job on bluesy lead vocal and real nice piano work by Levine makes this a solid closer.
