SMOKY GREENWELL & THE BLUES GNUS - BETWEEN IRAQ & A HARD PLACE

By DEANNE CARR
Staff Writer

Although not Jazz, this album lends its groove to that of country and blues. I find Smoky Greenwell has a “blues brother” sense of style, what with the harmonica punches and rocky melody.

Definitely upbeat, I found the lyrics some what hard to distinguish.

I find myself thinking of a honky tonk bar with feet shuffling left to right, right to left.

Easy to listen to ... A pick me up audio drug.

I tend to love a slower more sultry sound. This is a definite start to the day dealing with traffic on the 401 and sipping on the Timmy’s.
