Synopsis

Album Description
2009 release from the veteran Alt-Roots artist and former member of Green On Red. Chuck reached out to some musicians and talked them into going down to Mexico City, where they recorded at Estudio 19, with Greg Leisz co-producing. Over the course of the next eight days, the band set about recording Let Freedom Ring. Chuck played his Fender Squire, Kelly Stoltz on backing vocals, Rusty Miller [Jason Lyte's band] played bass while drummer Ernest 'Boom' Carter turned his sticks into kindling. The results can be heard from the Clash inspired opener to the power pop of 'Let Freedom Ring' and the Eddie Cochran infused 'Good Time Crowd'. Cooking Vinyl.

One of the greats...
Starhead | Moss Beach, CA USA | 10/28/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I'll admit up front that I'm a huge Chuck Prophet fan. He's an incredible guitarist, songwriter, singer and performer with some great albums under his belt. I've only had one chance to listen so far, so I can't rate it a classic yet, but it might get there. Chuck and his band have left the gimmicks and the hip hop bleeps and blips and samples behind and and returned to what he does best, solid songs with great lyrics and rippin' Telecaster.

Check it out... this man and his band should be huge stars, but lucky for those of us in the know we can check him out in tiny little venues where we have to dodge bandsweat. Go see 'em! And download this, legally!

OK... after a few more listens I'm upgrading to 5 stars. I think it's Chuck's best since the Feast of Hearts and Balinese Dancer days..."
