(5 out of 5 stars)

"I first heard Willie King play live at his festival in Freedom Creek, deep in Alabama, where this music arises from the harsh realities of rural life. This CD is the blues as it is lived today - a soul-filled expression full of joy and misery, catharsis and dance to lighten the soul. Willie King has a great blues voice and plays some mean guitar, backed up by a rock-steady band who never overplay the groove. If you like blues in the style of R. L. Burnside, John Lee Hooker or Howlin' Wolf you will love this album."
