Chris Turner - Rocks

Three years in the making, this album is a showcase of the many musical styles that this professional entertainer has developed over a lifetime. His lyrics are wicked as well as brutal, telling it like it is. From the plaintive cry of One More Gig to the ominous As I Lay Dyin, his songs will make you ask, "Is he singing about me?" His guitar playing follows this soulful journey with the blues arrangement of Waltzing Matilda on to tracks like 5th Street Boogie and the free form Blowin' Smoke. Twilight Jail will have you wondering about your own mortality, whilst, like a lot of this album, your feet will be boppin'. Rocks is an apt title for this collection from Chris Turner.
