Svante Törngren (a.k.a. Slowman) was born in Linköping, Sweden in 1957 and this is his his 2nd album. He has played with various groups since the 80's. Thiss is really not a blues-album even though Slowman is considered a bluesband. The music is like a stripped-down and laid back The Cell, the soulful southern rock-band from the Chech Republik.

1)I'm back (7,0) Nice, melodic and fast acoustic guitarplaying.

2)Take your time (7,0) Nice shuffle.

3)Southside (7,0)

4)Better believe (5,5) Cheesy refrain and happy happy.

5)Don't wanna know (6,5) A nice souhern-like ballad with piano and countryish guitarplaying.

6)Roses and wine (6,0)

7)The silent years (8,5) Begins with a bluesy ZZ Top-ish guitarsolo, a solo that comes back in this slow and sensitive blues. Excellent!

8)It hurts (5,0)

9)Soul for rent (6,5) A soul-funky song in Doobie Brothers-style.

10)Steppin' out (6,5) A funky blues like 70's Eric Clapton.

11)Me and the blues (7,0) Acoustic blues.

Score: 6,59
