5.0 out of 5 stars Must Have, April 16 2004

Bought this cd for Mark's "Mercury Blues"...if it was possible to wear out a track or two then "Found a Little Sweet Spot" and "Lights Are On But Nobody's Home" would be trashed....show your friends how musically asute you are and get this cd.

5.0 out of 5 stars Next Texas Guitar Hero?, April 7 2004

I'm with everyone else here - Mark May is an awesome talent and should be heard by everyone who enjoys good blues guitar. This CD is a transition from the more traditional, Albert Collins-influenced stylings heard on the excellent "Call on the Blues" and the more rocking entries to be heard on the spectacular "Doll Maker". All three are well worth owning, and now that Amazon is finally stocking "Doll Maker", all fans of blues rock and Southern rock should really jump on the opportunity to own that one. I think it's one of the best CDs I've bought in years - I even like it more than "Telephone Road"!

And you really should hear Mark play live if you get a chance - he'll blow you away!

5.0 out of 5 stars BRILLIANT BLUES CD, May 16 2003

Thanks to all the reviewers who gave this 5 stars and made me buy this cd. Great blues from start to finish. Albert's spirit lives on in improoved form in Mark May. Beautiful tone, great phrasing that pays tribute to Albert Collins but is infused with so many extra touches that it is always recognisable as Mark May.
Good to great songs, excellent voice and superb backing, what more could one ask for. The only shame is that living in Australia means I am unlikely to see this virtuoso live, BUMMER!!
My dream line up for a blues super concert would be : MARK MAY - DAVID GOGO - COLIN JAMES - VINCE CONVERSE - MARK SELBY and of course JOE BONAMASSA.

Mark May is without a doubt one of the very best new blues artists on the planet. Blues fans, especially musicians, will really appreciate the music. Read more
