CD Lyrics


The D. Smith Blues Band's Playing in the Dark contains a wealth of 50's and 60's-vintage blues styles, nearly all originals from singer/harpist Bob Orsi despite recycled titles. Clear sound and crisp arrangements boost the back-scratching "It Ain't Right," the Broadcasters groove of "Playing in the Dark," the Junior Wellsian proto-soul number "Got Love (If You Want It)" and the raunchy swamp-cum-Elmore blues "Booty Call." With none of the bulk of a freight train but all its momentum, it's a clear winner. Great guitars, swinging energy, just plain exciting stuff!!

CD Lyrics

Monkey Time was the best $12 I've spent in a long time!...
I was driving home today, in a real feel-kind-of-sorry-for myself mood, listening to Monkey Time. I started to feel a little better by Love Me or Leave Me and by Howlin' for My Darlin', I was really feeling pretty good.
 

...D. Smith Blues Band Fan...
