I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Dockside, from Jonah Tolchin and it's bluesy, gritty and steamy. Opening with swamp funky, Blues With A Feeling, Jonah Tolchin has a great vocal for this stripped down blues style. His guitar riffs are electric and with Nic Coolidge on bass, and Terence Higgins on drums, this is a terrific opener. Save Me (From Myself) has a cool rhythm and excellent vocal interplay between Tolchin and Marley Munroe with guitar accents by Tolchin. Very nice. Chavonne Stewart is featured on lead vocals on soulful, Too Far Down with a laid back instrumental backing including Chris Joyner on keys. Tolchin's guitar lead really sets the track off nicely with critical guitar accents. Ragged blues track, Suffering Well features a really nice guitar solo by Luther Dickinson and strong vocals by Tolchin. Excellent. Wrapping the release is slow blues, Lucille giving Tolchin a real nice opportunity to stretch out a little on guitar. This is a really cool release with a lot of grit and just the right amount of polish.
