Jeff Strahan - Monkey Around (2013) Lossless

Strahan has been beating the road up for eight straight years now. He has become comfortable with who he is as a songwriter, performer, and entertainer. This album proves he is in this for the enjoyment and happiness that it brings to others. Strahan's new rhythm section, Chris Compton on Drums, and Jimmy Hartman on bass, is a pile driving piece of machinery that creates a fantastic groove. The keyboard presence on this album is more than usual. Strahan focused equally on the vintage vibes of the Hammond B-3, Fender Rhodes, Clavinet and Wurley as he does on his guitar. There is also more vocal harmony on this album than before. Overall, it's fair to say this is Strahan's most mature and driving CD to date.
