Blue room

"There's a pleasingly busy vibe to the songs on Blue Room; Zito's distorted yet precise guitar lines often engage in dialogue with Byrkit's rubbery bass figures. The song structures hew fairly close to blues conventions, but the arrangements lean in more of a rock and (occasionally) jam-band direction. Yet Zito's economical writing style means that the tunes never meander or wear out their welcome ... the songs display brief flashes of rock-star pyrotechnics, but for the most part, Blue Room is a song-focused collection. Zito's raspy vocals convey the grit and sweat that went into developing the tunes, and there's a swaggering, good-timing feel to the entire disc. Both by design and necessity, Blue Room is the rawest document of Zito's talents, and the album's first proper reissue lets current-day fans hear what the guitarist sounded like near the beginning".
