Win Robben Ford's New Album 'Truth'

by Staff.

Truth

Modern Guitars magazine has three copies of Robben Ford's latest CD, Truth (Concord Records), to giveaway to readers on October 1, 2007. As reviewer Rich Murray says about the release: "Jazz/blues guitar legend Robben Ford's latest album, Truth, features a set of sophisticated blues songs that really shows his strength as a songwriter. Though much of his early work was in the jazz and fusion genres, Ford only takes occasional trips into that realm nowadays (e.g., with Jing Chi). The main focus of his solo albums has almost always been the blues; that's certainly the case with Truth. Whether it's the trials and tribulations of the 9-to-5 grind ("Lateral Climb"), a tribute to a musical icon ("Riley B King", co-written with Keb' Mo' as an homage to B.B. King), or even an anti-war message ("Peace On My Mind"), Ford's common denominator on this album is the blues."

More information about Truth, is available from Rich Murray's review, a review by Ignacio Gonzalez, or the review by Brian D. Holland.
