Danny Bryant demonstrated an
increasing maturity within his music with the release of Days Like
This a year ago. I always felt that, having paid his dues by gigging so
extensively through his youth, this CD was his rite of passage
- impressively showcasing his immense talents. How could he follow that?
Well, he recorded a Live album.
Called simply 'Live' it does exactly what it says on the tin. This is
Danny at his absolute personal zenith. He always gives his all on stage
and this CD brilliantly captures the moment, the spontaneity, the
atmosphere of the concert.
Throughout the experience, Danny
reigns supreme. There are some familiar compositions offered here from
Danny's extensive career as a song-writer. And a few covers are given
notable Bryant treatment. Result? A triumphant success.
If you can't follow the
Redeyeband to all of their gigs - who could afford to with so much tour
time now being spent on the Continent and an upcoming American
excursion? - this is probably the nearest you will get to consistent,
dedicated and inventive Blues-Rock guitar anywhere in the world
nowadays.
Danny Bryant has grafted hard to
achieve success. It seems that the rewards are beginning to appear -
endorsed by Marshall amplification and now supported by a new record
company, the future looks bright for this young man. Let us hope that
his success does not take him overseas permanently.
What else could Danny Bryant now
offer to his enormous army of fans? Perhaps a Live DVD? Until that gets
recorded, buy this CD - it's hot! Very, very hot!!!
