There are few musicians who are as congenial, live their lives from a place of gratitude or play an electric guitar as well as San Diego artist Patrick Yandall, so it was with great delight that I spun his new CD One Hour Blues. Looking funky on the cover in a black hat, black suit jacket and sunglasses, this is a new look for Mr. Yandall and “Follow My Road,” the opening song on this fabulous album, is played with the same passion with which Patrick Yandall performs in concert. If we may put in a plug for him you can watch the schedule for Humphrey’s Backstage Lounge in San Diego where he often performs with his band.
In most cases when you get an album which is entirely written, produced and played by the same person, it can get boring and pretty one dimensional pretty quickly, however, that is not the case with On Hour Blues, as Yandall plays the keyboards, bass and his Fender custom Stratocaster guitar. There are plenty of special effects and note bending on “Follow My Road,” and the only misgiving we have about this album is the use of drum programming, as we would have preferred a live body. If you are a fan of the electric guitar you should enjoy the album One Hour Blues.
