Two Germans, an Austrian and an American united in their love of Telecasters, produce some smoky, mostly instrumental, blues ideal for late-night snuggling. Recording in Bavaria, the quartet tips the hat to
George Benson at one point and includes the Peter Green instrumental "Albatross." "Nelly," a slow, dramatic blues, conjures the spirit of the late
Roy Buchanan and is the album's standout. The singing, in English, is passable and the band shows a sense of humor by finishing with the rollicking "I Want a Fraulein." ~ Mark Allan
