The devil to pay

"Having availed himself of ample opportunity to improvise over the years, on stage and in the studio, Kim Simmonds has in turn taught himself the value of economy, particularly critical in the latter environment (...) the man simply refuses to engage in self-indulgence, making this record all the more entertaining because of the self-discipline it exhibits ... With the likes of wunderkind Gary Clark, Jr. and British bluesmaster Matt Schofield around, this incarnation of Savoy Brown may not be the final word in contemporary blues, but both those estimable artists would do well to hope they sound as vigorously inspired as Kim Simmonds when they celebrate the half-century mark of their respective careers".
