"With his third CD, Nick Moss has achieved a big one. While his debut
First Offense was deeply rooted in the classic 50's Chicago style and the successor Got A New Plan more in a 60's style with occasional soul influences, Moss presents on his new CD Chicago blues styles of both decades, but in a traditional and earthy way throughout. While he has always been known as an excellent traditional blues guitarist, Moss has in the meantime also developed into an absolutely convincing singerpowerful, flexible and expressive. His songs are impressive, too: 10 of the 18 songs are self-written, are rooted in the classic Chicago Blues and offer interesting original ideas, especially regarding the lyrics. His "Gold Digger", for example, has all qualities of a true classic. Moss' regular crew include his wife Kate on rhythm guitar who is also responsible for the attractive cover design... The list of session guests is impressive, i.e. Anson Funderburgh, Curtis Salgado, Sam Myers and co-producer Lynwood Slim. A jam-packed CD containing top-quality music virtually throughout. I have seldomly been so enthusiastic about a new production. An excellent CD which is highly recommended for all lovers of Chicago blues." Klaus Kilian |
