Live At Chan's

Fans of Chicago Blues torchbearer Nick Moss will be thrilled with this long-awaited and eagerly-anticipated live release. The 76-minute set truly showcases Moss' strengths as bandleader, musician, and songwriter, as he and his top-shelf Flip Top combo burn through Moss' celebrated originals as well as some choice, time-tested (but not overdone) covers. Live At Chan's truly captures the spontaneity of a live Flip Top performance, as, over the course of the evening, band members (featuring Gerry Hundt and Piano Willie Oshawny) take turns switching instruments on different songs. The night is made extra special by the guest appearance by Moss' friend and fellow guitarist Monster Mike Welch, who lends his own style of guitar virtuosity to three tracks. If you're uneasy about the future of the blues, you'll find hope in Nick Moss. - Guitar One Magazine
