If you were looking for it, you¹d be hard-pressed to find such a laid-back,
refreshing, original recording as this. Terry B (Blankley) is a local
war-horse ­ a long-time keyboard player and veteran of a bar scene that pays
little to entertain loyal patrons who expect a lot. Terry plays because he
wants to, however, as evidenced on this 11-track self-release. The good news
is, his thankless dedication to craft is immediately audible from the first
regal strains of the Band-like Last Nations, sounding not unlike a back
porch variation of The Weight With a voice that sounds like a gnarled
cross between Springsteen and Tom Waits ­ sometimes garbled, always gruff,
Blankley is blessed with a world-weary quality that underlines his
experience. Equal parts jazz and blues, 11 original tracks include
highlights like I Can¹t Win­ featuring killer B3, tasteful piano and some
well-placed guitar (Bobby Watson) for a blues ballad that¹s laidback without
being lounge. Blues is Blues is, likewise, a high mark for its
authoritative touches, lush B3, and real-world message. Gig Blues²offsets
straight blues with the band¹s Steely Dan-esque jazz groove as Blankley¹s
voice assumes a hint of Ray Materick. Pity the package doesn¹t look like
much ­ because the contents are a welcome surprise revealing an earnest road
warrior bursting with confidence and ripe with original talent.
