- Kenny Wayne Shepherd/Mascot Label Group/Provogue Records- 819873010937- 500 grn
In a twenty-year recording career that began when he was just sixteen, Kenny Wayne Shepherd has established himself as an immensely popular recording artist, a consistently in-demand live act and an influential force in a worldwide resurgence of interest in the blues. Now, the five-time GRAMMY® nominee delivers one of his most personal projects to date with GOIN’ HOME, his eighth album and his first to be recorded in his hometown of Shreveport, Louisiana. Recorded in a mere eleven days, GOIN’ HOME finds Shepherd revisiting a dozen of the vintage blues classics that first ignited his love of the blues and inspired him to play guitar. The artist's sharp interpretive skills and sublime guitar work shine on his renditions of tunes originally popularized by such blues icons as B.B. King, Albert King, Freddie King, Muddy Waters, Magic Sam, Johnny "Guitar" Watson, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Buddy Guy and Junior Wells. With a little help from guest such as Joe Walsh, Warren Haynes, Keb’ Mo’, Pastor Brady Blade Sr., Kim Wilson, Robert Randolph, Ringo Starr, and Rebirth Brass Band album was released on 5th May 2014. Limited Edition includes three bonus tracks. Kenny Wayne Shepherd has form on the classic blues front, having produced the CD/DVD Ten Days Out and a live album with guests including Hubert Sumlin, Willie ''Big Eyes'' Smith and Bryan Lee. He is often seen as a rock-blues figure but that is far from the case here as he and his band give us fifteen tracks of blues covers from old school masters.

GOIN’ HOME, Kenny Wayne Shepherd's seventh studio album, is all about going home in more ways than one. Now well closer to 40 years old than he is 30, Shepherd isn't the hot kid electric guitar prodigy he once was, but an experienced player who has taken his considerable guitar skills all around the globe and back again, back home to Shreveport, Louisiana, to be exact, his hometown, and where this set was recorded. After flirting with a more contemporary, pop-influenced sound a couple of albums ago, Shepherd has firmly settled back into playing the blues, and on GOIN’ HOME he pays tribute to his influences in that arena, covering songs by Albert King, Muddy Waters, Magic Sam, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Bo Diddley, Freddie King, and B.B. King, all backed by an all-star band and featuring a host of guest spots, that make this release feel as much like an event as an album. Shepherd delivers blistering guitar leads, doesn't fuss over his vocals, and delivers a comfortable, warm, and perhaps wise return to where it all started. The key thing when producing an album of covers is to respect the originals but add something of your own and The Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band achieve that here. This is probably their strongest release in a blues style yet and well worth the attention of blues fans out there.
