Album of the Week: This Time

That searing, cool as dry ice-blue guitar tone...those supple, soul-inflected vocals...all that s-p-a-c-e between the notes ... hey, it must be a new Robert Cray album. Only This Time -- Cray's first studio LP in five years -- he's packing a (mostly) new backing band alongside an all-new set of deep-soul ballads 'n' urbane blues (mostly penned by Cray his badse'f). And it all goes down smoove as sippin' whiskey...
