a long way home the all acoustic CD

Putting down his Stratocaster, Lightning Red records a 14-song, all-acoustic album. Imagine this Texas bluesman on his back porch on a sultry summer night...with a few tunes straight from the Chicago juke joints, and some good ol' country pickin' thrown in for good measure. Lightning Red's smoky slide blues come well-seasoned by his lengthy tenure as a guitarist and harp player ...spotlights his lo-fi Chicago- and Delta-influenced blues compositions with matchless acoustic style, and nods to Willie Dixon and Jimmy Reed.       - Austin Chronicle, 2006                  Lightning Red        guitar, vocal, harp                  LZ Love   (lz-love.com)   vocal, knee slapppin, spoons                  Rob Greenfield     piano                  Rick Cannon        harp Engineered / Mixed by Adam Raven Million Dollar Sound - Austin, Texas (~~ engineered/mixed by Josh Duce) 12 songs © 2006 Lightning Red (W.Bak) / Lightning Red Music, BMI ( * Willie Dixon/Arc Music, BMI    **Jimmy Reed/Condor Music, BMI ) 1.     Lonely Man Blues   3:18     (MP3 samples)                  Lightning Red             guitar, vocal   2.    Lie No More   3:45~~                  Lightning Red             guitar, vocal                  LZ Love                      vocal, knee slappin' 3.    Can't Help Myself   3:18~~                  Lightning Red             guitar, vocal 4.    Cotton Pickin   2:59                  Lightning Red             guitar   5.     Heart Attack   3:41                  Lightning Red             guitar, vocal, harp                  Rob Greenfield           piano 6.    I Just Want To Make Love To You    4:21                                                                     *Willie Dixon / Arc Music, BMI                  Lightning Red             guitar, vocal                  Rob Greenfield           piano                  Rick Cannon              harp 7.    Don't Have To Worry  3:22                  Lightning Red             guitar, vocal                  Rick Cannon              harp 8.   Backyard Boogie   2:55~~                  Lightning Red             guitar                  LZ Love                      spoons 9.    Baby, What You Want Me To Do    4:02                                                               **Jimmy Reed / Condor Music, BMI                  Lightning Red             guitar - vocal                   LZ Love                      vocal 10.   Triple X  4:00                  Lightning Red             guitar, vocal                  LZ Love                      vocal 11.   Lightnin' Boogie  2:4                  Lightning Red             guitar 12.    Gates Of Heaven   3:35                  Lightning Red             guitar, vocal                  LZ Love                      vocal 13.   Lookin At Las Vegas   3:09                  Lightning Red            guitar, harp, vocal 14.   Texas Boogie   2:51                  Lightning Red             guitar   Back To Top
