I love the "St. James Infirmary" cover but would have appreciated more guitar; one guitar solo isn't enough on such a beautiful and soulful blues song. Most of the other numbers are the average, uptown, noisy Chicago boogie bar music. --- Delta Blues, amazon.com

A Los Angeles group, Blues Underground features the vocals of Roy Jones, with Dan Bachar on guitar, Michael Sunday on bass, Walt Thompson on keyboards, and either Danny Santoro or Marc Van Aken on drums. A native of Humphrey, Arkansas, Jones is a commanding presence with his taut, soaring vocals and impeccable phrasing (bringing Mighty Sam McClain to mind.) Ten of the disc's fifteen songs are covers, but with tight and tasteful support from the band Jones manages to breathe new life into such war-horses as The Thrill is Gone and Messin' with the Kid. Look past the generic band name and cover art and get this CD .---JDK, Living Blues, 1996
