Smokin` Joe Kubek: Smokin` Joe Kubek (guitars, 12-string guitar, slide guitar); Bnois King (vocals, guitars); Little Milton (guitars); Mark "Kaz" Kazanoff (harmonica, tenor saxophone); Jim Spake (saxophone); Sax Gordon (tenor saxophone); Tino Barker, Les Izmore (baritone saxophone); Scott Thompson, Gary Slechta (trumpet); Ron Levy (piano, organ, Hammond b-3 organ); Jerry Hancock (electric bass, percussion); Greg Wright, Paul Jenkins , Bobby Chitwood (electric bass); Jas Stephens (drums, percussion); Phil Campbell, Ralph Power, Mark Hays, Jimmy "Blue Shoes" Pendleton, Keith Stern (drums); Rusty McFarland (cowbells); Jackie Johnson, Susan Marshall (background vocals). Texas-based blues guitarist "Smokin`" Joe Kubek cut his musical teeth performing in bands with the likes of Stevie Ray Vaughan and Freddie King. His fluid, lyrical guitar playing, which shows the influence of both these musicians as well as that of Jimi Hendrix, propels his hard-rocking band through this collection of straight-ahead, down-home blues on cuts like the snaky "TV Light" and the incendiary "Texas Cadillac." His partnership with the Louisiana singer Bnois King (no relation to either Freddie or B.B.) is a mutually beneficial meeting of complementary musical talents--King`s smooth, assured vocals are a perfect foil for Kubek`s smartly constructed solos--while instrumental tracks like "Corn Palace" give this fretboard wizard ample room to stretch out.
