The Racky Thomas Band 2002 Troubled All The Time





Genre: Blues
Rate: 224 kbps CBR / 44100
Time: 00:50:53
Size: 81,56 MB

This is an amazingly authentic band with lots of grit and soul. Led by George, ''Racky'' Thomas, who sings with unaffected ease & blows powerful high compression harp, the band sounds like they have been together for years. Guitarist Nick Adams plays sympathetic to the songs and never overstays his welcome while drummer Jon Ross hits the skins with soul & restraint. All but one of the songs are originals but sound like they come from years before. The band has talent on many different levels and special guest guitarist Troy Gonyea adds fire to 3 of the tunes.



Tracklist:

01 - Ain't It Lonesome 04:23

02 - Oh My 04:06

03 - All By Myself 05:34

04 - One Thing Mama 03:10

05 - Blues Keep Me Troubled 03:41

06 - Your Love To Me 06:04

07 - All I Need Is You 02:59

08 - Ain't Your Average Ordinary Dame 03:17

09 - Eyes Like Diamonds 02:57

10 - Sweet Little Angel Child 03:45

The Racky Thomas Band 1998 Last Of The Big Spenders





Genre: Blues
Rate: 224 kbps CBR / 44100
Time: 00:49:42
Size: 79,63 MB

The Racky Thomas Band comes from Boston, and they have put out three self-released CDs. Last of the Big Spenders was released in 1998 and is their second CD, a great collection of some old time blues. The songs on this CD are very diverse and just a whole lot of fun to listen to and, no matter what style they decide to play, they pull it off.

The CD starts off with a bang with "Sweet Dough Baker," a great old time blues song with very nicely played guitar by Nick Adams and vocals by Racky, who also plays harmonica. The next track, "Don't Treat Me Like That," picks up right where "Sweet Dough Baker" left off, but with more of a sly feeling to it. The next couple of songs are very solid and well played, with "Rack'em Up" a great instrumental showcase for Racky's harp playing. "Last of the Big Time Spenders" is a very solid straight ahead blues song, and it sounds new and refreshing. Track eight, "Tears Fell Down Like Rain," is the best song, and it is unlike anything else on the CD as it is a ballad about a relationship that did not work out that well. This CD is very much worth getting. You can find it at cdfreedom.com, where you can find Racky's other CDs. It is well worth the search. (http://www.bluenight.com)
