I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, These Hard Times Will Come To Pass, from D. Scott Riggs, and it's a strong release of traditional style blues. Opening with title track, These Hard Times Will Come To Pass, D. Scott Riggs accompanies himself on an acoustic resonator guitar. Keeping it simple yet effective this is a solid opener. Riggs' fleet fingered rhythmic playing on There Will Come A Time, transforms a simple ballad into a cool blues anthem under his gravelly vocals. Or The Devil Will Get You is formed along the lines of Big Joe Williams' Baby Please Don't Go. Wrapping the release is Hard Times No More, an easy flowing slide piece performed on the resonator. Clean and melodic, a solid closer for a cool traditional blues release.
