Summary: Landreth is Fabulous
Comment: I've known about Sonny Landreth since my days as the entertainment editor at the Lafayette, Louisiana newspaper. He was always a great musician, but he has really come into his own here. And the fact that high-profile, high talent musicians respect him enough to play back-up on this album is high praise indeed. Mark Knopfler, Eric Clapton, Dr. John and Jimmy Buffett are on board but play second fiddle to Landreth. Don't miss this one!

Summary: slide-guitar virtuosity.
Comment: when you're talking about slide-guitar greats, you have to include sonny landreth.
dwayne allman,george harrison,ry cooder,lowell george,robert johnson and roy rogers are among the best ever and i'm here to say that sonny is at the top of the list.
different styles i know, hard to say who's best?
not for me.
i think i've seen him and the goners live about 40 times or so(i lived in new orleans)and each time he's seems to just get better.
this new one is still growing on me,i'm not sure it's gonna be one of my top favorites yet.
hearing "south of i-10"(his sgt pepper), i thought he could'nt get better,but he is way out front of anyone else.
i've always thought of him this way.
sonny is just plain "outside the box".
i think,the greatest guitarist alive today,maybe of all time.

Summary: Good Stuff From Sonny
Comment: Sonny's latest is very good. Anyone making this purchase will not be disappointed. His guitar playing is awesome along with his guests. His all original songs are quite good also.
Customer Rating:
Summary: May be album of the year!!!
Comment: This is absloutely top notch record. Wonderful choice of songs, arrangements and guests. Beautifully produced. This album moves Landreth to another level!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Sonny doesnt need guest artist
Comment: this is Sonny with guest artist, Sonny doesnt need any other guest. The songs are good but nothing stands out like his other work. If you are a fan of Sonny its always great to have anything he does in your collection. I probably will play his earlier work more.
