 Doyle Bramhall II & SmokestackWelcome Release Date 2001 Label RCA Rating:  Welcome, Doyle Bramhall's third effort, continues to blur the lines between rock and blues, but he doesn't always achieve success with this tactic. Although the album opens with &"Green Light Girl," a frenetic tune with lots of rockin', driving guitar riffs, the majority of the songs veer toward blues, albeit unconvincingly. &"Send Some Love," an aching ballad, calls for emotion-drenched crooning, but Bramhall's vocals are a tad too cool, and &"Thin Dream" attempts at bluesy stylings but is really a rock power ballad. The last cut, &"Cry," finally whips up some emotion from Bramhall, but it should have been spread throughout Welcome. Even contemporary blues needs a little grit. Rosalind Cummings-Yeates, Rovi |
