CD ReviewsA Great One-Man Band!!! peter krampert | eharmonica.net | 02/09/2002 (4 out of 5 stars) "In the history of the Blues there have been quite a number of one-man bands. Blues players who sing, play guitar and put a harmonica on a neckbrace, sometimes playing a little percussion or bass with their feet. Mr. Downchild fits into this subgenre of Blues very nicely.Born in England in 1950, Mr. Downchild, who's real name is Stephen Brazier, has been a student of the old Blues masters for most of his life. He got his stage name from a Sonny Boy Williamson II song and since immigrating to the US in 1985, he's been a real fixture in the midwest Blues scene.In live performances, Mr. Downchild is sometimes backed by a live group, somestimes he goes out as a one-man band. This CD provides an outstanding sampling of what Mr. Downchild can do as a one-man band. He plays all of the instruments on the album live and the results are simply great. There are a lot of full bands out there who should sound as complete as he does. This CD is definitely worth a listen."
