"The Blues Music Awards (formerly W.C.Handy Awards) have named Duke Robillard "Best Blues Guitarist" four years out of five (2000,2001,2003,2004) making him the second most honored guitarist for that award! He was also nominated in that category in 2005, 2007 and again in 2008", (http://www.dukerobillard.com/news.cfm, 2012).

This album does a great job of capturing the magic of the blues to swing era set with great jazz standards along with some original compositions. If you like jazz set to some great lead, rhythm, and bass guitar, you will like this album.
