Walking on Fire

by Kenny Neal

Overview

Another in the remarkably consistent Alligator catalog of Kenny Neal that strikingly captures his contemporary Baton Rouge blues sound. He gets a little hot help from the Horny Horns -- alto saxist Maceo Parker and trombonist Fred Wesley -- who once filled a smiliar role behind the Godfather of Soul himself, James Brown. Two songs find Neal going the unplugged route, just as he had performed them in the Broadway musical Mule Bone. ~ Bill Dahl
