I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Bluesman From Jupiter, from The Dennis Spencer Group, and it's a solid set of rocking blues. Opening with title track, Bluesman From Jupiter, Dennis Spencer on lead vocal and guitar sets the pace with Tracy Hart on backing vocals, Mikal Majeed on keys, and Terence Johnson on drums. This driving rocker uses a rock and roll rhythm and a bluesy style. Cool opener. Soulful, Cold Corner, features Tracy Hart on lead vocal, with Bobby Warren and Tony Hithe on backing vocals and featuring real nice guitar phrasing by Spencer. Ballad, Why Can't We features Spencer and Hart sharing the mic and smooth guitar lead by Spencer. This is a tight track and a likely radio player. Texas style blues rocker, Tall Guy Boogie, really has legs with a grinding guitar vamp and giving Majeed the lead on melody. A real nice guitar solo by Spencer and Faith Jobe on drums, this is one of my favorites in the set. Wrapping the release is You Been Blackenized, a cool, laid back track with a mix of R&B and Hill Country styling. Featuring Bobby Warren on lead vocal and some swinging blues guitar work by Spencer, this is a strong closer.
