Andy J Forest - Affittato Blues
Review by Marcos Paiva
Andy J Forest's album Affittato Blues is a soulful and bluesy masterpiece that showcases his exceptional songwriting and musicianship. The album features a mix of original compositions and covers that are all imbued with Forest's signature style and sound.
The album opens with the title track "Affittato Blues," a slow-burning blues number that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Forest's gritty vocals and expert guitar work are on full display here, and the track is a perfect introduction to his unique brand of blues.
Other standout tracks on the album include "Broken Bottles," a haunting ballad that showcases Forest's emotive vocals, and "I'm Gonna Leave You," a rollicking blues number that features some impressive guitar solos.
