Anyone hoping for a pure blues album, will be disappointed by this board - I am not. The album is a mix of melodic rock (just the opener My Mistake is quite smooth advised), laid-back blues-rock (see No Slack or Unbroken), punchy songs like Mountain Time (who first heard it on the live album, expected to be surprised) but Handmade Blues (as the title track would be mentioned) or extremely long ausgespieltem improvisational blues-rock (a little like Pain and Sorrow can be seen on other discs long search). Hardly have ears ausgefiept after this guitar enjoyment, we continue with takin 'the hit, a piece in which JB Blues, Hard Rock and light Funkanklänge amalgamated into a brilliant sound web. Head paddles included. The last three pieces Under the Radar, Sick in love and The Hard Way then illuminate JB guitar skills at the Blue Rock sector, where it provides the bouncer The Hard Way once again proved why he has the reputation of a brilliant guitarist again. Overall a good album, not just a single track comes up, but his versatility proves.
