Highly recommended for fans of Electric Blues guitar.
Let me know what you think...

If you like Coco Montoya, you'll probably enjoy Painkiller by Tommy Castro. Coco plays on "a good fool is hard to find".
Every now and then even the most jaded music fan will find an album where all the pieces just fall into place. That's the case with Painkiller, Tommy Castro and his band firing on all cylinders as they roll through this spirited collection of blues, rock, R&B, and soul. Producer John Porter (Buddy Guy, B.B. King, Santana) has created a bright, beautiful mix for these songs, allowing Castro's charisma and the entire band's talents to shine right through your speakers. Painkiller won a 2008 Blues Music Award as "Contemporary Blues Album of the Year," and for good reasons...this album rocks! (Blind Pig Records)
