12 strik­ing orig­i­nal songs full of engag­ing, sharp-edged obser­va­tions on life and love, and shot through with every­man wis­dom and humor.  Rol­lick­ing road­house R&B, hard Chica­go blues and wrench­ing bal­lads.  O’Leary’s rough, riv­et­ing vocals and world-class har­mon­i­ca play­ing set the pace through­out this set of rol­lick­ing road­house R&B, hard Chica­go blues and wrench­ing bal­lads. “Grit­ty blues and soul­ful bal­lads [per­formed with] absolute author­i­ty.  Chris O’Leary rocks relent­less­ly with assur­ance and a clear sense of pas­sion.  A potent, rag­ing tour-de-force.” —Liv­ing Blues
