Review: “The disc opens with the quite topical title track "Wall Street Blues". It's a slow, sullen sounding song about an equally sullen topic. The way Bobby sees it, it didn't matter if you voted Obama or McCain, everybody's feeling the pain. It's a depressing song about depressing times sung in a depressing tone. The lyrics and the vocals are this tracks highlights. You can check Bobby out by going to www.bobbyblackhat.com/. While you're there, make sure you pick up a copy of "Wall Street Blues". It's a heck of a lot of entertainment for you dollar. And, as the title track sings about, now is when you need it most. BTW, tell BlackHat Blewzzman sent ya.”
