Black
Joe is Texan, Black Joe is a riot, Black Joe will reduce you all to electric
slaves with this new ferocious set of smoking songs, but…the first ones to give
Black Joe any credit, publishing his first two albums, were the guys at Italian
label “Shake Yo Ass Records”, so let me share with you a little nationalistic
pride, just for a moment…alright!
This
is a world where, every time someone dares achieving a little success showing
nuances of unadulterated spirit, all is reduced to a product to copy and
reproduce grand-scale; Black Joe Lewis, fortunately, is still a joyous
exception to the rule, still maintaining his own identity and primal rawness.
Exuberant,
that’s the first word coming to mind to describe the electric turmoil agitating
the dark waters where Joe, with his crew of soulful mariners, sails the waves
of the most exhilarating funk, commanding the sea foams of vicious garage rock
with the blues authority of a veteran. (Read Alle Royale's Full Review HERE)
