I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Ooh Yeah!, by Kenny "Blues Boss" Wayne, and it's a full plate of Boogie Woogie. Opening with title track, Ooh Yeah!, a cool piano boogie, Wayne really rattling the piano and lead vocal joined by Joey DiMarco on drums, Nick Succi on bass, and Jimmy Bowskill on guitars. Solid opener. With a New Orleans flavor, Baby, I'm Your Man has a shuffle rhythm by DiMarco Succi, and full horn support of Kaven Jalbert on tenor sax, Remi Cormier on trumpet, Mathieu Mousseau on bar sax and of course strong vocal and piano by Wayne. With a potent strut, Wishing Well is a soulful track really showcasing Wayne's vocals as well as some real nice guitar riffs by Bowskill, backed by Ian McKeown on drums. I really like Honey, Honey, Honey with it's rolling feel, piano/vocal lead by Wayne and and potent horn backing by Jalbert, Cormier and Mousseau. Wrapping the release is That Crazy Monkey, a cool blues rocker with Leon Russell like potent piano and bouncy vocals, punctuated by Jalbert, Cormier and Mousseau making for a solid closer.
