Supernatural By Robben Ford 5 Star Review

Supernatural by Robben Ford Heart Melting Guitarist Robben Ford has led parallel careers. Theres the virtuosic white blues musician who jammed with Jimmy Witherspoon as a teenager, and theres the superclean session player and fusion-jazz cat of L.A. Express and Yellowjackets fame. These roles merge on Supernatural, produced by Susan Rogers (known for production work with Prince and Barenaked Ladies). Unfortunately, what comes out is a mediocre blue-eyed soul singer who has neither the voice nor the songs to match his guitar chops. Many of the tracks settle into listless studio funk grooves substituting polish for passion. Only when Ford reaches back to the blues for Paul Butterfields Lovin Cup does he crack a sweat. By that time, its too late. --Rick Mitchell Personal Review: Supernatural by Robben Ford This CD was unavailable for a while. Agony. I'd heard the song "If" on a radio show and wanted to buy it THAT DAY and couldn't. I wrote Mr. Ford a fan letter and he most graciously wrote back. He thanked me for the kind words and said "it is my favorite CD of my own work." "If" and "Don't Lose your Faith in Me" are heart melting and I've listened to them a zillion times; but the rest of the CD is slammin'. I can't imagine my

life without this music, it's so great. Robben Ford is rightly considered one of the greatest guitarists of this time. But I love the way he sings too. Simple and true. For More 5 Star Customer Reviews and Lowest Price: Supernatural by Robben Ford 5 Star Customer Reviews and Lowest Price!
