Description
Since they burst out of Chicago in 1985, Lil' Ed & The Blues Imperials' high-octane, houserockin' blues has never been more popular. Their 2006 release, Rattleshake, was the band's best seller in years (over 10,000 sales worldwide) and they celebrated by playing an extensive schedule of club and festival dates throughout the world. This new album finds them making the best music of their careers and ready to spread their raw-boned boogie to their biggest audience yet.
This is simply the rawest, truest, most electrifying blues being made today. Wielding his slide like a switchblade, Ed stokes the up-tempo tracks to a white-hot intensity and the tough, slow blues even hotter. A touch of barrelhouse piano and raucous horns add to the fun and The Blues Imperials, throttle wide-open, match Ed step for step and push him to the best performances of his career.
