Boomerang

So to Eric's 6th Studio album - and per usual, it does EXACTLY what it says on the tin, no pushing the envelope......this guy just never let's up from the opening lines of RUN DEVIL RUN to the close out of HEAVY LOADED with his own particular brand of blues/rock. His resonator sliding at a rate of knots and yes, I'll agree, his vocals ain't up to much but they fit this style of music like no other - and let's face it, there are plenty of other guitar slingers/songsmiths out there that have made a lucrative career without the voice of an angel too!It has to be said that this guy has to be seen to understand his sheer power and enthusiasm...and while he travels the world playing gig after gig, he truly gets little time to hit the studios, hence his meagre output over the years - but what he has put out has always been true to form and blistering and BOOMERANG doesn't change that stance one jot.So, if you like slide guitar, the blues and blues/rock, you'll go quite some distance to find anyone that smacks you quite between the ears as does our Eric!Buy with confidence!

Slightly heavier sound - but still Eric and his band making a just fine sound!!

A return to more blues based material with strong songs and excellent musicianship as you would expect. Its quite a short album though.

More from the slide guitar genius good to listen to after a few beers preferably Sol. Saw him a while ago in Southampton Had a broken leg after falling off the stage in Scandinavia and all his guitars had been stolen, Still put on a good set with borrowed gear and a bar stool.

Ordered, received, enjoyed. Pain free shopping.
