Robert Cray- Smoking Gun- Dallas 1987
Another stellar live performance, no overdubs, by the Robert Cray Band at Dallas club Redux in July 1987, “Smoking Gun” and the album Strong Persuader resulted in Cray being heralded by no less than legendary Dallas native Steve Miller as “…the most important contemporary blues singer/guitarist/songwriter since Jimi Hendrix.” Recorded impeccably by In the Studio engineer Doug Hall in the Crossroads Audio mobile studio, produced by Redbeard, and presented here to celebrate American Black History Month. –Redbeard
