#albumbluesrock 36/2025 Today's issue shares the best of our century. We decided to cover all three decades at once, and here's what came out of it.
Ben Granfelt - Gratitude (2023) This is Ben's special 20th solo album and a tribute to his guitar heroes Jeff Beck, Gary Moore, and Robin Trower. A very diverse style, encompassing blues, monumental rock, and jazz, it features a very strong performance from Granfelt as both guitarist and vocalist. The album is notable for being recorded with his longtime bandmates and is considered a personal and proud achievement for the artist, released to coincide with his 60th birthday. It features a wide stylistic range, from blues-rock to monumental rock and jazz-influenced instrumentals like "JB Reggae" and "Techno Blues." Granfelt's guitar playing has been described as outstanding, and the album showcases his ability to replicate the styles of his idols. The concerts that followed the album's release also highlight his talent as a singer. Granfelt himself considers the album a very special and personal work, recorded live with his longtime bandmates Masa Maijanen (bass) and Jari Salminen (drums). Overall, reviews have been very positive, with many calling the album an "outstanding" release that showcases his skill and musical journey.
Hundred Seventy Split - Movin' On (2023) Reviews of Hundred Seventy Split's album Movin' On are largely positive, praising it as an excellent example of modern blues-rock, fusing classic 1970s British rock with contemporary blues. The album features superb performances from the band, particularly Leo Lyons on bass and guitarist/vocalist Joe Gooch, with standout tracks like "Mad, Bad and Dangerous," "Sounded Like a Train," and "The Road Back Home." Reviewers have described the album as a blend of energetic, fiery compositions and more complex, soulful tracks. The release has been described as blues-rock with a modern sensibility, rooted in classic British rock. It features a blend of classic and modern influences, creating a sound that appeals to fans of both old and new blues-rock. Album Highlights: Individual tracks like the energetic "Mad, Bad and Dangerous," the atmospheric "Black River," and the reflective "The Road Back Home" are often mentioned. "Easy to Slide" is praised for its upbeat, classic vibe. Some consider it a great entry point for new listeners and a must-have for fans of the genre.
Lisa Smith's Powerhaus - 612 (2014) Lisa Smith's recognition in the Toronto music scene is no surprise to those familiar with her talent, drive, and integrity. A true versatile artist, she excels in many genres, including metal, rock, gothic rock, blues, gospel, opera, and classical music. Her voice is a true force of nature, capable of producing piercing sounds one moment and crooning mesmerizing, angelic melodies of a broken heart the next. A powerful female-fronted rock band formed in Toronto in 2006 by Lisa Smith and Chuck Page, the band draws stylistically from an eclectic blend of hard rock and heavy metal, uniquely embodied by one of Canada's finest and most versatile vocalists. Known for her unparalleled vocal power and remarkable stamina, she effortlessly handles the raspiness of David Coverdale or the extreme heights of Rob Halford/Geoff Tate, combined with a touch of the classic R&B style of Aretha Franklin/Etta James. Further adding to the variety is the complexity of Chuck's playing—a blues-infused musician who counts Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page, and Eric Clapton among his favorite artists, but who also masters the pounding riffs and shredding required for their more metal compositions, creating a unique sound all his own. The rock-solid rhythm section consists of Peter Greco—a unique percussionist stylist beloved for his powerful yet complex, precise, and solid drumming—and bassist Tim Langan, both seasoned studio musicians and veterans of North American touring. Together they create a unique and instantly recognizable groove, and their live performances are renowned and a must-see. The album features impeccable production quality, a sweet and melodic guitar sound with energetic, fiery rhythms... Combined with Lisa Smith's synergistic and edgy vocals and the addition of high notes, the entire album becomes a new form of rock journey." This is a damn good album that will clearly live forever.
Concrete Blonde - Mojave (2004) After reuniting in 2002 to record Group Therapy, Concrete Blonde disappeared into the desert. The Southwest, home to singer, bassist, and occasional psychic Jonnette Napolitano, is a spiritual cradle of shamanic sunsets and coyote-inspired nights, and on Mojave, the veteran Los Angeles trio skillfully crafts a suitable soundtrack. Guitarist Jim Munkie and drummer Gabriel Ramirez create a dusty, ominous, and gloomy backdrop for Napolitano's husky voice—a voice that once combined the wolfish howl of Chrissie Hynde and the raspy croak of Tom Waits, but is now as dry as the desert itself. Mojave is atmospheric and tense, but fails to connect with the soul, despite the promising opener "The "A" Road." There are attempts at melody ("True to This") and humor ("Jim Needs an Animal"), but the overall experience is like listening to a Nick Cave B-sides collection—the largely conversational title track aspires to Cave's "Tupelo" but never quite delivers the musical thunder its lofty imagery suggests. The Death Valley-esque funk of "Someone's Calling Me" recalls old Concrete Blonde, and the eerie cover of "Ghost Riders in the Sky" makes for a few choice moments, particularly when Napolitano reaches his highest register, but overall the album suffers from a strange formlessness. "Mojave" is a decent record, but its reliance on regional lyricism demands a less convoluted musical framework.
Atrio - Blank (2019) The blues-rock band Atrio from Central Hesse was founded in 2017. In April 2019, they released their debut album, "Blank," which was recorded under the direction of Ulrich Pfanmüller at Ton-Up Studios in Altenstadt (Wetterau). Prior to this, the trio had already been involved in a number of interesting events. After taking first place in the final of the Emergenza-Bandcontest—the world's largest festival for young rock talent—in Hesse and seventh place in the German final, held at Berlin's SO36, the band raised the necessary funds to finance their debut album through crowdfunding. The album is very interesting, although we would have preferred it to have had one or two fewer instrumental tracks, and instead featured another song in the style of "Relief," "Blank," or "Pull The Trigger." If you enjoy good, homemade R&B, and Rival Sons, Jack Slamer, or Audioslave are among your favorite artists, then you should definitely check out Atrio.
Thorbjorn Risager, The Black Tornado (2017) Reviews of Thorbjørn Risager & The Black Tornado's 2017 album, Change My Game, are overwhelmingly positive, calling it one of the band's best albums to date. The diverse mix of funk, southern rock, and blues, along with Risager's soulful vocals and the musicians' well-coordinated performances, are particularly notable. Highlights include the gospel-tinged "Holler 'n' Moan" and the expressive "Lay My Burden Down." Thorbjørn Risager's powerful and soulful voice is a consistent highlight of the album, with critics praising his emotive delivery and nuanced phrasing. Change My Game is a superbly written, played, and produced album. There isn't a wasted note throughout the entire album. Risager's songwriting is impeccable, and his voice has never sounded better. The Black Tornado have once again proven why they are among the top five studio and live bands in the music business. 2017 marked another defining moment in the career of the Danish artist and his band, which is undoubtedly their best album to date.
