Billy Flynn - Blues Drive

Review by Yoric Irving-Clarke

Blues Drive, the latest album by Billy Flynn, is a masterful showcase of the blues genre. With his soulful guitar playing and smooth vocals, Flynn takes listeners on a journey through the heart of the blues.

The album kicks off with the upbeat and catchy "Lonesome Highway," setting the tone for what's to come. Flynn's guitar work shines on tracks like "Blues Drive," "Going to the Church," and "I Feel So Good," showcasing his technical prowess and ability to convey emotion through his playing.

Flynn's vocals are equally impressive, with his smooth and soulful voice perfectly complementing the bluesy instrumentation. This is particularly evident on tracks like "Another Day," "I'll Be Around," and "Little by Little."

The album also features some standout guest performances, including harmonica player Billy Branch on "Going to the Church" and vocalist Deitra Farr on "I'll Be Around."
