While he makes his fame and fortune cutting blues-rock, guitarist
Duke Robillard periodically issues albums of stylish, restrained, subtly swinging jazzy material. This date includes guest appearances from swing-influenced contemporary instrumentalists such as tenor saxophonist
Scott Hamilton and guitarist
Chris Flory, who teams with
Robillard on "Glide On" for some excellent twin guitar fireworks. Otherwise, it's
Jim Kelly who matches licks with
Robillard on "Jim Jam" and "What's Your Story, Morning Glory." It's relaxed, elegant music, with just enough grit to keep things interesting. ~ Ron Wynn
