"A gifted lead guitarist firmly in touch with his lyrical voice, Castro writes an alluring blend of straight-ahead blues and Memphis-style soul. While he has his own definable sound, Castro calls to mind great blues-rock players such as Billy Gibbons of Z.Z Top, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and even Duane Allman." - Blues Revue

Tommy Castro has became one of my absolute favorite blues artists! His powerful electric and soulful blues really moves me and I can listen to these killer songs on the album over and over again. Everything that I like about music is included here and the albums just great all through! Recommended!

1)Lucky in love (9,0) Fantastic start! Uptempo and happy!

2)Like an angel (8,5) Cool organs and horn-rhythmsection in this funky blues.

3)Right as rain (9,5) Unbelievely good and including great female background vocals.

4)Don't turn your heater down (7,5)

5)I've got to love somebody's baby (8,5)

6)I got to change (7,0) A middle-of-the-road song.

7)If I had a nickel (8,0) A superb slow blues.

8)Callin' San Francisco (8,5)

9)Just a man (7,5) Slow bluesballad.

10)Chairman of the board (9,0)

11)My kind of woman (8,0) Very funky in the best James Brown-style!

12)Kickin' in (7,5) Uptempo Chicago-blues.
