Tommy Strain - The King of Peachtree Street
is a southern blues album that grabs you from the beginning and the end with his new CD,
The King of Peachtree Street.
This album is "a collection of recently written original songs, four blues standards and one written by
Tommy and Doug Bare" If you haven't heard any of his material yet, you'll like what you hear.
This album is a well rounded selection of songs that feature Tommy's great guitar playing. It begins and
ends very strongly with the title track,
King of Peachtree Street
, and an impressive Leon Russell cover,
Palace of the King.
The heart of the cd shows evidence that Tommy has listened to a few Led Zeppelin tracks in his day. The
second track,
Cole
,
is evidence of that. The contemporary blues track,
Future Blues
and the slower stuff like
Same Old Blues
makes this CD a very well rounded debut.
