The Robert Cray Band 2010 Time Makes Two

[Eko]

One of my favorite blues songs period.

1. His voice gets to me.

It draws me in. It makes me feel.

[Eko]

2. Yup,

you can hear his pain and his love when he sings and then when he plays lead the same thing. He is not the best player, the fastest, most technical. But you can hear the feeling big time on both singing and playing.

3. I've always liked his music, but

when I saw him in concert, it was the most boring concert that I've ever experienced. I may as well have stayed home and listened to a cd. No emotion at all.

4. He's been hit or miss when I've seen him

I saw him in the early 90s in a festival in (I think) Mesquite TX with Buddy Guy and the Fabulous Thunderbirds and he looked overwhelmed.
Not a good show, but he was new and was in the process of getting shown up by the band before him and the legend who came next. So maybe not a fair assesment

The next time I saw him was 99 with the Memphis horns in a theater and he was great.

The past 2 times I saw him he was good, but not as good as his best.

But he is on my list of "always go see" artists because when he's on - he is fanatastic, and when he isn't on, he's really good.
