5 out of 5 stars Wonderful surprise   November 3, 2008
I had heard an review on National Public Radio and since my husband is a big blues fan, I thought I'd try it. This was a wonderful surprise! We love the CD and would recommend it to anyone - whether they are a major blues fan or not.


4 out of 5 stars Sonny Slides Again   October 29, 2008
Sonny does it again with some help with his friends. Top cuts are Blue Tarp Blues, Milky Way Home and Storm of Worry.Great disc.


5 out of 5 stars album of the year   October 25, 2008
The songs are good and not just your typical blues. The guitar playing however is outstanding. The best I've heard in years. I nominate it for the album of the year.


5 out of 5 stars Grammy nomination?   October 15, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I believe From the REACH will be Sonny's break through album. It should at least receive a grammy nomination for blues album of the year, if not win. Several of the songs are incredible. However, I especially love "When I Still Had You", which sounds like his lament to the loss of old New Orleans. Although Blue Tarp Blues is obviously about Katrina, several other songs have subtle Katrina references. Plus, at the age of 57, Sonny has paid his dues and is highly underrated. Good songs, emotional topic, musician who has paid his dues - sound like Grammy to me. Reminds me of Bonnie Raitt with Nick of Time


5 out of 5 stars Sonny Landreth From The Reach   October 10, 2008
Sonny just keeps getting better and better. If you like slide guitar, you'll love this cd and all of Sonnys work
