Headhunters - Soul
CD Review by Cheryl H. Hill
CD
Review:
The
promo blurb accompanying this CD describes the album as "a little
bit country and rockabilly with a twist of blues" ... this is an
apt description and the music is delivered with the ultimate three P's
that epitomize great music; passion, power and perfection.
Although they list the genre as "pop" on their website, I
think it would be a definite mistake to pigeon hole this album. There
is something for everyone here and none of it really strays too far from
country to alienate true country music fans; at least not the grass
roots country music that I was raised on. Soulful and bluesy have
been an integral part in a lot of great music -- whatever the genre --
traditional country is no exception.
On their website it says, "The band calls [Soul] the most
honest and passionate Headhunters music in years." I
certainly agree. The album also reflects their personal and
professional growth as artists and musicians. The album is worth
purchasing just to hear the incredible guitar playing and also the
masterful piano of one of the best blues pianist in the world, Johnnie
Johnson.
The final cut on the album is "What You See Is What You Get (Give
Me Some Skin)." In this case, the skin refers to the drums
and the drum solo at the end of this cut will reverberate your spirit to
a new level. If you had any doubts that country music could rock
your Soul, this CD will enlighten you as it entertains you.
Kudos to the Headhunters. No one will ever look at folks
from Kentucky the same way again.

Review by Jim Weaver:
Nice job! Simple,
tons of pictures, not one FLASH file to contend with and easy to
navigate. One thing you have to watch out for is the "sneaky sound
file". There's a song file that can suddenly catch you off guard
when you're browsing through the photo albums. Because of that we'll
have to make this one a "Singing Site". 
Other than that this is a fun site, a true testament to the guys in the
band. There's an amazing amount of concert photos and photos with fans
and celebs alike. Plenty of sound files for you check out and see if you
like it before you buy it too. Good job guys, give your webmaster a hug.
