Worth The Money

"Saw Mike in The House of Blues, and this boy rocks. He was playing in the restaraunt and the Jerry Garcia Band was in the Concert Area. If I knew what he was about, I would have given up the JGB. Three piece band with a lot of sound and these boys are tight."

Classic blues style/sound with good variety of cuts

"I am a blues fan. My tastes include Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton (From the Cradle), and old ZZ Top. This CD doesn't disappoint. I first heard the cut "Black Cat" on a weekly blues program on the radio. That song alone motivated me to buy this CD.I am always surprised when the remaining songs on a CD support the one most played on the radio. That was definitely the case with this one. Griffen is great on guitar and he has a great keyboard player. There is a good mix of slow blues (...fifth of whiskey and a "Case of the Blues") and upbeat stuff with great guitar licks. Griffen also has a good blues voice. This is his best CD, but "Sittin' Here with Nothin'" is good too."
