Blues on the Range
Roy Rogers, recent production sidekick to John Lee Hooker, is one of the most able slide guitarists around. His precise outlay of notes, however, has a heartless, glossy feel. Worse yet, the San Franciscan's singing is inexpressive and as worthless as a paring of cheese rind. Interpretations of two Robert Johnson songs are easy-listening monstrosities.-- © Frank John Hadley 1993--From Grove Press Guide to Blues on CD
