Alligator Records viert haar 40ste verjaardag met release van de CD;                               
TOMMY CASTRO presents  the LEGENDARY RHYTHM & BLUES REVUE – LIVE.
Award winnaar Soul/Blues/R & B zanger en gitarist Tommy Castro is de muzikale kapitein van de legendarische Rhythm & Blues Cruises.
Geïnspireerd door de spannende jam sessies op het schip besloot Castro met zijn band dit ook voor publiek op het vaste land te gaan uitvoeren en het ook op CD en Video te laten opnemen.
Deze LIVE-CD is een collectie van de hoogtepunten uit deze Revue, van de recente live optredens.   
Samen met de uitstekende mondharmonicaspeler; Rick Estrin, de charismatische zanger Janiva Magness,  gitaar-gigant Michael “Iron Man” Burks, award-winnende gitariste Debbie Davies, Soul man Theodis Ealey, R & B- Sista Monica Parker, de overbekende Joe Louis Walker  en een uitzinnig publiek is er een dampend muzikaal feest vastgelegd en dat is te horen ook…….

Wat niet op de CD staat maar wat ook een goede impressie van het geheel geeft op het clipje onderaan waar de totale band bezig is met zangeres/toetseniste Deanna Bogart die ook nog een verdienstelijk stukje saxofoon ten gehore brengt. Een naadloze mix van Blues, R & B, Soul en Boogie in een sublieme vorm staat er op deze puike CD, komt de band naar Nederland sta ik zeker vooraan.
