New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ RoadRunner Records) - "This is pretty much the guitar anthem of all time. From that amazing opening riff to the way he breaks it down in the middle and gets funky, the whole thing is incredible. There are things Jimi did on the guitar that humans just can't do. You can try all day, even if you're playing the right notes, it's not the same. It definitely seems as if he was coming from a higher place when he played." - Kenny Wayne Shepherd To celebrate the release of Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band's LIVE!
