In the middle of a storm that wound up dumping 20 inches of snow on us, I trudged out to check out this sold out show. It was worth every flake! Cedric Burnside + Lightnin’ Malcom opened and charmed me so much I bought their album “2 Man Wrecking Crew” on iTunes during their set. I’ve listened to the album many times this week and and love that yet again the third generation carries the torch.
Joe and his band came out and lit the place on fire! What a showman! He had us in the palm of his hand as Malcom continued to charm us. You could tell by the smiles on their faces how much fun all of the musicians had. There were three horns, two drum sets, two guitars, one bass and one Black Joe Lewis. Perfection!
I can’t wait to see what happens next!
