I bought this album when it came out because I wanted something that had both rock and blues and this had good reviews and fell in love with the gritty bluesy sound of the 'Barefoot Servants' immediately. From Jon Butcher's gravely vocals that clearly reflect the fire in his soul, to the electric artistry of Ben Schultz' guitar accompanyment, this debut CD works out to be a clear treat for any blues enthusiast even though the most purists of those might raise a suspicious eyebrow now and then. Anyway, From the sardonic humor of 'Foolish Behavior', to the barroom brallish excitement of 'Muscle Car', you'll agree that this album is an excellent addition to your personal collection and a scandalously overlooked opus.
