Free Music Notes for 10 Days Out (Blues from the Backroads)/ (CD/DVD)
Free Music Review: One of the best ever
Hit: 5 Stars
I didn't know this DVD/CD set existed until I saw KWS recently and he played some of the DVD. Both are a real tribute to the old blues players that are still around (although some have passed since the making of the DVD) and a real keeper. Both discs are superb - visually and musically. KWS really played tribute to these men and the blues. Thanks KWS. Free Music Review: Awesome Blues Tribute
Hit: 5 Stars
Excellent Blues Tribute to the some of the well-known and lesser-known "Fathers of the Blues".
Kudos to KWS for putting together such an outstanding tribute and rewarding his fans with a terrific bonus DVD.
The DVD alone is worth the price of admission.
Thanks, Kenny.
Free Music Review: Great, especially for non-hardcore blues fans

This product--the DVD in particular--is almost like a blues primer, an ideal introduction to what makes the blues not only the most authentic and original of American music, but the best category of music out there. For anyone who has found real blues (as in, say, anything mroe raw than the Allman Bros.) a little bit inaccessible, this is your answer. And for real blues fans, you owe it to KWS to support this very admirable effort. Great on every level.Free Music Review: An absolute MUST for blues fans!!! And a great introduction to this terrific music for the others
Hit: 5 Stars
What I knew of Kenny Wayne Shepherd prior to this wasn't exactly to my taste. It was good - no doubt about that. He is great guitar player. But his music was a bit too tough, too electric for my taste.
As I never give up on good musicians, I looked and listened into this one - man, was I blown away!!!!
The concept is quite simple, Kenny Wayne together with his friends Chris Layton and Tommy Shannon (of Double Trouble) visits the players he loves and adores and joins them to create this country blues jam-fest. It's improvised, just taped the way it was, but that's what makes it so special.
Watching and listening to him play together with Etta Baker in her kitchen, or with Buddy Flett in a graveyard as a tribute to the late and great Leadbelly. With Cootie Stark performing U-Haul. Waiting for BB in his own hometown - ooooh these solos just hit me! WOOW!
No matter which track you pick, there's so much love for the music jumping off the disc - amazing.
And even for non-blues fans, this is something to watch. The fun these terrific musicians have playing together, sharing their craft and the joy will jump over to you, who knows, maybe in the end even turning you into yet another blues fan like me.
It comes as a two disc set. The dvd is my favorite, but sometimes when you just want to listen to the music, then you pick the cd.
Free Music Review: Completely Blown Away

WOW!
I did NOT see this coming! Kenny Wayne Shepherd has put together an absolute blues masterpiece! Track after track sees Shepherd playing with the greats and lesser knowns of the blues, from the backwoods to the blues club, acoustic and electric.
But the guest star album has been done to death, so what makes this one different? Well, it's tough to put your finger on, that's for sure. It could be that the songs aren't Kenny Wayne Shepherd, featuring another blues artist, but another blues artist, featuring Shepherd. It allows for each song to have a distinctive flair of its own, for each of these seasoned blues singers and guitarists to really lend their own styles to the music. This creates an album where the songs are played with a lot of soul, energy, and emotion, and it's truly a pleasure to hear such varied voices in one album.
Amazing!
