Fragile Creatures

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Willie sings! Ace guitarist Willie Logan excercises his vocal chords on this release, but instro fans need not worry, there's plenty of hot licks and a couple of instrumental tracks on this album. Willie continues to amaze us with his inventiveness on his own songs and others (Henrdrix, Gregall Allman and Bill Broonzy all feature here) and he is an act well worth catching if he turns up in your town. From Willie's own notes for the album: "We are all such Fragile Creatures. A year of personal sadness and loss has proved that, awarding me an emotional roller coaster ride. Each track attempts to cover a different human emotion and each has a guitar solo, which I have endeavoured to make distinctively different from the last."
