I started a quest to find terrific blues music and incredible musicianship when I was just a little kid. I also have a tremendous appreciation of fine musical instruments and equipment. One of my greatest joys all of my life was sharing my finds with my friends. I'm now publishing my journey. I hope that you come along!

Tower High Music artist: Celso & Darryl - About Time - New Release Review

 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, About Time, from Celos Salim and Darryl Carriere and it's packed full of lively rock and blues. Opening with BBQ, a hot R&B style track with a funky backbeat. Celso Salim on guitar leads this rocker with a cocky strut and Darryl Carriere on harmonica and vocal  really get this track going, backed by Mike Hightower on bass and vocal and David Kida on drums. Solid opener. Jump track, Sweet Thing really has a great feel with excellent riffs and wicked trem bends by Salim and wailing harmonica by Carrier. Excellent! Slow blues, In Your Arms has it all with a strong melody vocal depth by Salim, sumptuous harmonica solo by Carriere and gripping solo by Salim. Very nice. Lightly funky, Get Along is really a cool track with a potent drums rhythm by Kida. Salim and Carriere play a great call and response vocal jibe and tasty work by both , this is one of my favorites on the release. Shuffle, Love On A Shelf has a rolling bass line by Hightower and Salim and Carriere share the mic with stinging guitar riffs as accents all through the melody. Carriere really shows his blues influences on this track with great tone and phrasing. Wrapping the release is country blues, Make You Mine with Salim on resonator and Carriere on vocal and harmonica. With a foot stomp as percussion, this track has a really soulful authentic old school feel. Solid closer for a really cool release.
