The Lionel Young Band
As The Sun Goes Down
(F1io1O27CD)
A sure-fire way to field test the Lionel Young Band's As The Sun Goes Down is to slide the CD in your player as you're traveling down the Turnpike. Watch your foot jump in the gas tank trying to keep time with Young's Delta and Chicago style blues.

Seriously, singer-songwriter Young, who can be live at Boulder's Catacombs, begins his album with rockin' blues songs "Defense Blues" and "One Way Out," and showcases his hot fiddle playing with "Skuttle Buttin;." Edgy, outrageous, thoughtful and- entertaining, Young sings about still boogyin' when he's 6 feet in the ground, a warning about Denver's brown cloud, and a riff on Jimi Hendrix's "Hey Joe" that asks O.J. where he's going with that knife in his hand.
