The cross-weaving of Corky Siegel’s masterful blues harp with a classical string ensemble, and with a tabla underneath for good measure, makes for compelling listening that continually refreshes itself with track-by-track tweaks. Mr. Siegel’s own play is particularly striking in minor-key mode as evidenced on the leadoff track, “No One’s Got Them Like I Do”. The blues/classical confrontation plays out in a delightful manner with vocalist Marcella Detroit’s treatment of her own “There Goes My Man”. Features on their own compositions by Toronzo Cannon- “Insurance” and Tracy Nelson- “Down So Low” are strong airplay bets. The latter is a don’t-miss performance.
