Marcus Bonfanti
– Shake The Walls (Jigsaw).
With his 2010 album, What Good Am I To You, listed in Classic
Rock’s top 50 albums of the year, the follow up could have been difficult. The
opener, Alley Cat, dispels the fears immediately with its great riff and deep,
velvet vocals. That voice is the constant despite some genre switches – Country
Blues (Jezebel), classic Rock (Cheap Whisky), R&B (My Baby Don’t Dance), Americana
(We All Do Bad Sometimes) and Blues (Honest Boy). Highlights are Honest Boy with
images of the old Blues shouters and the high octane rocker Bang Of A Gun. Where
that big voice comes from in such a little dude I don’t know.
David Blue.
