"IN THE POCKET"
Leo Hull & The Texas Blues Machine
<-- Back to Press ReleasesNext Press Release
REMEMBER THE NAME LEO HULL & THE TEXAS BLUES MACHINE. ALTHOUGH THIS IS ONLY THEIR THIRD CD, IT SERVES GRAND NOTICE THAT THIS INCENDIARY BAND WILL BE AROUND FOR A LONG, LONG TIME.THIS IS THE WHOLE PACKAGE REQUIRED FOR BIG TIME COMMERCIAL SUCCESS; IMAGE, CHARISMA, FIRE DRIVEN PERFORMANCE, AND A STRONG UNIQUE VOICE BACKED BY A BURNING BLUES GUITAR.
THERE ARE ENOUGH FLASHES OF TRUE GRIT AND TEXAS ROADHOUSE BRILLIANCE TO HAVE LOADS OF CRITICS DECLARING LEO HULL AND THE TEXAS BLUES MACHINE TO BE THE "NEXT BIG THING" ON THE NATIONAL BLUES SCENE. THESE FOUR FELLOWS ARE REALLY TOUGH/TIGHT AND VERY CHARISMATIC.
"IN THE POCKET" IS A MASTERPIECE OF WIT AND SOCIAL COMMENTARY, AS ALWAYS WITH RICH VOCALS AND IMPECCABLE GUITAR. ALL SONGS EXCEPT ONE ARE ORIGINAL AS LEO REMAINS ONE OF THE MOST PROLIFIC BLUES WRITERS ON THE SCENE TODAY. FROM START TO FINISH, THIS IS A TOP NOTCH EFFORT THAT PROVES BEYOND A DOUBT, THAT LEO HULL & THE TEXAS BLUES MACHINE, ARE ON TO SOMETHING BIG.
IN A BLUES WORLD THAT HAS SEEN ITS SHARE OF PRETENDERS, IMPOSTERS AND WANNABES, IT'S A BREATH OF FRESH AIR TO LISTEN TO A CD BY A REAL BLUES MAN. EVERY SONG IS A WINNER AND ANY TRUE DEVOTEE OF THE BLUES SHOULD INVITE "IN THE POCKET" TO COME ON HOME. IF YOU CANNOT CONNECT TO THESE SONGS, YOU BETTER CHECK YOUR PULSE.
