Duke Robillard

Roll With Me

(Stony Plain Records)




Eminently tasteful originals and homages share the stage, in dated sessions now glimpsing unclouded skies. This is executive station. No sooner has the stylus touched down, than Duke comes out swinging. The purveyor of delectable string articulations rolls through ecstatically jumping Blues and Rock'n'Roll territories with audacious, Jazzy elan. His guitar dances.

Abetted by joyfully rollicking brass and ivories, he unburdens himself of vocals winking and wise. 

Recommended: "Blue Coat Man," "Just Kiss Me," "I Know You Love Me," "Boogie Uproar," "Look What You Done," "Built For Comfort," "My Plea," "You Got Money," "Boogie Woogie Country Girl," "Give Me Back My Money," "Don't You Want To Roll With Me"

Videos: "Blue Coat Man"   "Just Kiss Me"   "Boogie Uproar"
