Free Music Review: NOT JUST A BLUES BAND
Hit: 5 Stars
What a great find this was! I've had this album for a couple months now, and it refuses to leave the cd changer. Jon Bare plays some of the catchiest tunes with some of the most sinister guitar work I've heard in a long time. You get everything from blues, to reggae, to no holds barred rock and roll. His fat guitar tone reminds me a lot of the early Jimmy Thackery albums. Combine that with the song grooves of the Allman Brothers, and you've got some truely dangerous stuff. Bare must have a real jones for Willie Dixon, cause the 3 covers on here are all by Dixon. And it's all good, especially Dixon's "You Shook Me'. I didn't think Jeff Beck's version of this could ever be equaled, but Bare's version gives it a run for it's money. This is some serious mojo. But the best tunes on here are Bare's originals. My favorites here are "3rd Planet Funk", which is Bare's tribute to dead rock stars. This is the best rock song that I've heard in the last couple years. It just oozes that great southern rock sound beckoning back to the 70's era. Another standout on here is "Clambake", which would fit right in with that Elvis Presley movie of the same name. It's got some of the most creative guitar work on the album. This record's got the great songs, great playing by an ace band, and some good singing, especially on the songs "Bring It On Home", and the reggae inspired "How Love Turns To Gold". Just a very solid and enjoyable album by a band I hope to hear a lot more from in the future. Yowsa!
Shredzilla Poster
Shredzilla is the second release by studio wiz Jon Bare who takes the stage to deliver kick-ass blues and rock tunes with the awesome backing of veteran drummer Chet McCracken (Doobie Brothers) and bassist James LoMenzo (David Lee Roth, Ozzy Osborne, White Lion).
On this CD Jon Bare stretches out and takes the spotlight with his smokin? hot guitar playing and solid vocals. Not just another Stevie Ray rip-off, Jon has his own unique sound, somewhere between Carlos Santana and the Allman Brothers. Playing with fire and intensity as well as delivering some extremely melodic guitar lines, Jon covers all the bases from blues to rock, seasoned with a dash of reggae and funk. This is some great music to listen to while driving up the coast.
