James Harman's Do Not Disturb is a first-rate blues album, one that captures all the different sides of postwar blues. At its core, Do Not Disturb is Chicago blues, but
Harman touches on swing, jump, and Texas roadhouse blues, banging out gritty, greasy harp licks with intensity. His band is up to the challenge of keeping up with him -- they tear through the uniformly excellent songs with abandon. Do Not Disturb establishes
Harman as one of the most exciting blues traditionalists of the '90s. ~ Thom Owens
