The Electric Room - Parlor Jones - New Release Review

I just had the chance to listen to The Electric Room by Parlor Jones. Jones (vocal and guitar) and company [Eliot Falk (bass), Jeff Drake (Drums), Marlon Savarino and Bob Markos (harp), Joey D. Dunlop (keys), Perry Sheldon (guitar), Jo Ann Hudson and Jann Childers (Backing vocals)] have assembled a set of blues pop tracks for basic listening pleasure. The songs range from We're Gonna Rock and Roll Tonight, with a retro English blues pop sound to a Outside Woman Blues, a Cream cover of a classic blues track. You Must Know I Love You has the classic lines of the Kinks or Buddy Holly. Southbound Train is a driving blues rock track along the lines of Foghat but move conventional guitar soloing and adding of harp work. Take The Time, the bluesiest of the original tracks featuring some nice guitar work by Jones as well as a relentless harp ambiance. Cream's White Room ans Politician as well as the Beatles Glass Onion round out the set with classic style and giving Jones the opportunity to play out a bit on guitar.
