Free Music Notes for Some Rainy MorningFree Music Review: Sizzling! Hit: 5 Stars"Surgeon General's Warning: This album may be too dangerous because it is literally dripping with raw emotion and pure attitude. It contains so much good music it may cause a severe addiction to the sizzling guitar and gripping vocals of Robert Cray." This cd blew me away when I first heard it and still does. "Moan" is the best song on the album but they are all really good. I enjoy Cray's previous albums with a horn section, but I have to say when it's just him and his band pared down, his voice and guitar playing are even more compelling. You really believe what he is singing about, he has so much conviction in his voice it's scary! If you are looking for music that will grab your attention on the first note and hold you there for the next 10 songs, then buy this cd! It is a must-buy for any fan of American roots music.

Free Music Review: This record soars high! Hit: 5 StarsThis is the best comtemporary blues album released in years and I am grateful to own a copy (second copy, 1st was stolen) and buying for the 2nd time! Aside from the most distinct Strat tones of Robert Cray is his ability to sing in such great harmony and melody and not miss a note picking his 6-string...incredible! I like "Moan", its got alot of energy, the poweful drums, rich bass, sweet organs, notable guitar chords and vocals. It is "a very richly" recorded album which stood out in all avenues. His loyaled and talented bandmates incorporates every subtle aspects in musicianship one can only find in a blues record such as Robert Cray's. "Some Rainy Morning" is a feel good album as it is in the "Blues". I can listen to this album over and over again and if it gets stolen again, I will buy my 3rd.
Free Music Review: Take it from a pro. Cray's the real deal. Hit: 4 StarsBeing a working professional musician I am always looking for music that is true and inspiring. Regardless of if you are a blues fan or not, Robert Cray is one of the best performers out there in any genre. His recent work (Midnight Stroll and newer) leans more towards soul than traditional blues. The subject matter is your typical "she done me wrong" blues cannon but he sells it like it should be sold. It's completely genuine. He's an incomparable vocalist who sings like a bird. His guitar playing, while on the surface seeming simple, portrays exactly the proper "feeling" for the arrangement and song. His playing is a statement; emotionally mature and marked by brevity. It does what music is supposed to do, express feelings that words cannot. It doesn't suffer from the continuous, spaceless, blues-chops-heavy solos that most post-SRV blues players suffer from. This isn't music for chops-meisters. I've seen his live show and it's better live. Great guitar tone, super solid band, it's one of the best shows you'll see. If you're a fan of the groove and soul music check it out.
Free Music Review: A Cray Fan Hit: 5 Stars This is my favorite Robert Cray CD. Every song is a good one. The great ones are Moan, Little Boy Big, Jealous Love, Will You Think of Me, and Holding ON. The guy blends R&B, Blues and Soul perfectly on this CD. And on top of that he can bend them strings on that Fender!!! This CD is a must!!
