Synopsis

Product Description
Ronnie Earl s third release for Black Top heralded the official formation of his band The Broadcasters, so named after the first solid body electric guitar, built by Leo Fender back in 1950. And in that band was one-time Rocket Darrell Nulisch and ex-Muddy Waters sideman and harpist extraordinaire Jerry Portnoy among other luminaries, plus a special guest appearance by Ronnie s Roomful of Blues mate Duke Robillard. In short, this was one smokin ensemble, and this is one smokin album, garnished with the bonus tracks 'Love at First Sight' and 'I m Holding On!' From 1988.
 

CD Reviews

Ronnie is the earl of guitar
W. Landis | des moines, iowa | 04/05/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"this cd starts out with one of the best ronnie instrumentals - backstroke. it is hot, great riffs, jumping right in. it also sets the tone for this smoking cd. ronnie is one of the best, and when he focuses on the blues there aren't too many that can touch him. ronnie tosses in tasty instrumentals. all tracks - great! add it and enjoy it, again and and again."
HepCat is at it again!

"Hooray for HepCat for creating brand new editions of Ronnie Earl's early discography with the Broadcasters! I am very satisfied with the quality of the disc and the beautiful packaging, including current reviews added to the original liner notes. This purchase has exceeded my expectations."
None Better Than Ronnie Earl!
deepbluereview | SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA USA | 05/30/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"There are few guitarists that play with the intensity of Ronnie Earl and that could not be more evident than on this release. Even the slow burners "Blues For Bone" and "Sufferin'" are full of outstanding riffs played straight from the heart. Couple that with the addition of harp player Jerry Portnoy who served up a six year stint in the Muddy Water's band and the soulful vocals of Darrell Nulisch and you have all of the ingredients for a really good blues CD."
