Recorded live at Lucerne Blues Festival, Swizerland, 2003.

This trio from California was one of last year's biggest surprises at Lucerne. Their simple, straight-forward style, inspired by the old masters and trios like the one led by Hound Dog Taylor, got the attention of the audience almost immediately. Frank Goldwasser (Paris Slim) knows how to build the fudamental grooves, and R.J. is a great story teller in blues. Without any doubt, Richard Innes is one of the greatest blues drummers, ever. And who's the bass player? There is no bass player! Crosscut Records

Let me state right up front that this CD is one of the best that I have heard in a long while. Featuring three well known West Coast blues players, The Down Home Super Trio plays blues the old fashioned way. Kudos to the Down Home Super Trio for adopting the trio format and trying an approach that most modern bands would not attempt. It takes very skilled musicians to pull this off and these guys have succeeded big time. Very highly recommended. Southwest Blues Magazine

Pure hard drivin’ Chicago blues with a demolishing straight playing with no ‘design stylistic concessions’. A bright powerful hot album that makes me think the real blues spirit was there that particular night… and you have the proof here. ~Blues Matters
