The James Solberg Band - See That My Grave Is Kept Clean (1995)

Jim Solberg's debut album See That My Grave is Kept Clean is a storming collection of hard-driving electric blues. Before he had the chance to make this record, Solberg perfected his trade by working as a sideman. Those years slinging a guitar paid off in spades, as this record demonstrates. There's a maturity to his style, but there's also unbridled energy -- the combination is, at times, irresistable. The songs may be a little uneven, but there's no denying that Solberg and his crack supporting band have made See That My Grave Is Kept Clean into something to remember.
