DEEP DOWNTOWN CD REVIEW [- Hide]
JAMISON MAHTO-www.iicoc.com
I'm not certain that most would recognize the close association between our culture and the culture of the African American in the way that Jimmy Wolf does in his music. I was amazed and astounded when I heard the Pow Wow drum thumping behind a blistering blues solo. This is phenomenal. This is genius. It's natural as I see it. It only just makes sense. This is what I live for.-APRIL-2008.

Jimmy Wolf Rome, New York "My Mind Is Rambling"
This is a really conventional blues romp with zero surprises, so why do I dig it? Well, it's the little things. Wolf's guitar tone is tough and mean, his vocals have a gravelly swagger, and the solo at 1:15 fires off with some noisy bends and keeps on howling. myspace.com/jimmywolf
