Review

''...Sizzling, smoking and sure to be award winning, this is as hot, bad and authentic as it can ever be. Killer stuff.''

Chris Spector
Midwest Record review 9/11/2020

''...A recording like this is essential to keeping that straightforward blues alive.'' His return to MC Records offers exactly the same vision.

Take Me Back is unmistakably classic blues, throughout it all, Wilson's voice is the beacon which leads the assembled players home.

Rock and Blues Muse

These musicians are so natural and effortless that it's easy to see why no overdubs were required. Like Wilson, they live and breathe the real deal blues.

Glide Magazine

Wilson creates a vintage vibe that never sounds dated, blowing fresh air into obscure classics as well as presenting some of his own that fit in so well you'd never know they weren't old-school gems.
