Fran McGillivray Band - Walkin’ Blues
Album: Midnight Call | Official Website: Buy Album:
“Ten of the 11 tracks are original compositions by McGillivray and fellow band member Mike Burke, with a range of Americana influences often to the fore. The obvious comparator for opener Hard Working Woman is Bonnie Raitt with dramatically reduced slide content, while Blood On Your Hands is a strong condemnation of domestic violence. Missed My Chance With You is a country song that applies the usual lost bet gambling metaphors to failed romance. Mister Blues shows conclusively FMB can also do jazz when it so chooses.
The set closes on a familiar note, with a run through of Robert Johnson’s Walkin’ Blues. It goes without saying that Burke’s guitar and mandolin work is of uniformly high standard, as is both Roger Nunn’s drums and percussion and various guest contributions. As the title implies, Midnight Call is definitely one for later in the evening, and none the worst for it.“ - Blues Matters
