John Németh's style of soul-blues, punctuated by his fine harp playing, has always had a Memphis edge even though he's from Idaho, which is why this set, produced by
Scott Bomar in
Bomar's Electraphonic Studio in Memphis and featuring the veteran Memphis soul band
the Bo-Keys, makes such perfect sense. It's a warm, fun album, and it rises above being merely retro, thanks in no small part to
Németh's open and unique approach to modern blue-eyed soul. ~ Steve Leggett
