Duke's Blues
Date of Release Jan 23, 1996

With Duke's Blues, guitarist Duke Robillard pays tribute to his blues idols, such as Albert Collins, T-Bone Walker, Guitar Slim, and Lowell Fulsom. As expected, it's an affectionate and professional tribute. Robillard works with an augmented blues combo, featuring a second guitarist, piano, and a small horn section. The band runs through the material precisely and efficiently. Although there's plenty of fine musicianship throughout Duke's Blues, it's the kind of record to admire, not love - it's expertly executed, but it never catches fire. - Thom Owens
