CD Reviews

R&B WITH A SENSE OF HUMOR!

RICH N | exit 156 | 07/05/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a great find for anyone who loves a hard swinging shuffle with great solos and a cute story sung in a telling way by a cool hipster. Gene's penchant for songs about full size women is a riot. With titles like BIG LEGS, BIG FAT MAMMA, SNUFF DRIPPING MAMMA, PUNKIN HEAD AND FATSO you know this is going to be a good time. The band swings like Lionel Hampton while Gene rocks along in a Louis Jordan groove. Sound quality is superb and with a total of 25 cuts this is a great lesson of what Jump Blues is all about."
