Bio / Background
Besides the overall sound on the record - the perfect balance between the bass and drums, Burns and Greg Morrow, respectively, and the vocals (slightly up front like at a good live show) - it is the guitar work that stands out. Mr. Burns has done his homework, and he reminds one that the music was so good back in the days of Motown, Muddy Waters and Cream, because people paid their dues, learned their craft, and had to really bring it every night on the road. That, in turn, was what they brought to the studio and their records.
Joe Burns blends dynamic leads and rock rhythm riffs with a tremolo guitar on "Tokens of Treason." His slide guitar on "South Bound Slowtrain" and "Just Let Me Be" is stellar and stands tall with Mick Taylor's work on "the Stones' Let It Bleed." His guitar leads shred as much as any chops miester, but always have soul and taste.
