Description
From his powerhouse recordings to his hard-hitting live show, it's easy to see why Michael Burks' nickname is Iron Man. One of the brightest young lights in the blues world and a constant draw on the road he is the blues fan's version of a sure thing, with his fearsome guitar attack and deep, soul-packed vocals.
This new album is a potent dose of contemporary blues, almost crushing in its intensity. Burks wields his axe like a man possessed, breathing fire into every track, whether it's the charging rocker "Quiet Little Town", the chilling blues of "Icepick Through My Heart" or his sizzling take on Free's "Fire And Water".
Michael Burks (guitars, vocals), Wayne Sharp (organ, piano), Don Garrett (bass), Chuck "Popcorn" Louden (drums), Frank Donaldson (percussion on "Fire And Water").
