Big Ken Smith The blues meets southern rock head-on in the feisty music of Big Ken Smith. Its a tough sound, full of urban grit and backwoods mud... of hard-won wisdom and cheerful resilience. Bassist and singer, Big Ken Smith presents his 12-song CD on Cold Wind Records. Nearly all of the songs are originals with over thirty years of American roots built in. The sessions feature Sam Lay- drummer for Howlin' Wolf, Little Walter, Muddy Waters and more. Plus, Larry Burton- guitarist with Albert King, Albert Collins, Taj Mahal and other blues greats. Produced in Nashville by Fred James, the album is, as Ken simply states... "Modern Blues with a little more meat to it!" Music columnist Tom Surowicz writes... "It's the right material... a brand of blues that's fresh, funky, southern-fried and personal."
