Coco Montoya's often ferocious guitar is the main reason to acquire this 1997 release.
His singing is expressive and reasonably effective, but it is his blazing guitar soloing that makes one wish that he would record a full set of instrumentals; "Cool Like Dat" is a real cooker.
Montoya performs some soul, R&B, and even country-tinged music on the set, but he is at his best on the blues, particularly the B.B.
King-inspired "Do What You Want to Do." Although his backup band is fine, this interesting if not quite essential release is primarily a showcase for the passionate Montoya.
Recommended in particular to fans of the rock side of the blues.
