i came close to tears when Stevie Ray died, Kenny and Noah are keeping his style alive. Love it

[@mattwildermuth9152]

I have no shame in disclosing I was bawling like a baby when I heard. Famous last words for me: my wife understood well enough to disrupt our entire non-refundable honeymoon in Hawaii so I could see him at Alpine Valley on August 26 or 27 (we were married on the 24th). "I’ll have another chance to see him.” 😢😢😢

[@cinful5680]

Kenny & Noah are like peanut butter and jelly!!!! Perfect together

[@stevenalansmith2791]

Noah has to be 1 of the best singers I've ever herd

[@TerryLivelyInk]

I would have to agree. I love Noah...

[@danielemarturano3548]

His voice is magic

[@juliusschwencke142]

..pure and simple.

[@drdbailey]

Noah has the best blues voice out there!!

[@rextindell3675]

Noah has one best and purest voices ive heard ,no distortion

[@16chedder]

Noah's singing and Kenny's pure fender sound can't be beat

[@raywalters243]

I heard that SRV Scuttle Buttin lick Kenny threw in on King Bee! Love it! Keep it alive son!!

[@ddogg987456]

Noah is amazing. Kenny is flawless. Awesome jam sesh!

[@niceguy2171]

Two really talented musicians right there, and people don't realize how hard you have to work to sing and play at the same time as Noah does, and the obvious skills of Kenny of course. Have to give a big shoutout to Paste..not only for bringing these to us..but also for the excellent work in capturing the sound so well, even though that space works well, getting it recorded so it sounds so good is a skill in itself, and so again Kudo's to all those involved in making that happen.

[@kickinbackinOC]

Kenny's delicious lead on "I'm a King Bee" just makes his Strat scream and sing!

[@dennisasselstine2271]

Incredible new material and love the Muddy Waters cover of King Bee!!! I like how you're keeping the blue alive and celebrating the traditional Blues mentors!! Awesome awesome!!

[@mattwildermuth9152]

You gotta hear the Live in Chicago version of that song recorded at House of Blues. Incomparable.

[@larrypoole3906]

And here i go again Goin back where I've already been Thats a great lyric. Frow a really really good album. KWS is badass. Go see them live.

[@dannee3731]

Absolutley amazing! I have been listening to Kenny since 98 and have seen his in person about 6 times.. However, I don't remember him singing in the early days, he has a great voice.

[@scotthowes1869]

Listened to the first song and bought the album. Good Stuff Kenny.

Looks like KWS is using his Analogman KOT into that little Vox combo. Sounds great with his old Strat!

Smells of SRV (in a good way) :). One of the reasons why i love KWS

[@colinstros55]

Its on purpose. I believe his dad was an SRV roadie and KWS lived on the road as a kid.

[@clevelandlawson1982]

srv is all by himself love Kenny though

[@cbeserra]

They’re great. Kenny does the Stevie thing as well as anyone, better than most.

Magical throughout, but sheer wizardry at 24:00.

I think they really like to play Blue on Black. No pun intended 🤣
