The is still alive, was my first thought. However, his first studio album in eight years break sounds, as you would expect from the living legend, whose guitar playing Mark Knopfler and Eric Clapton influenced. Down to earth, self-contained and no trends afterwards panting. Most of the 13 songs he has recorded himself, with the other musicians were not according to his statements under 60 years at work. And so sounds "To Tulsa And Back" reluctant to be dormant and completely one in its blend of rock, blues, country and swing and the distinctive voice Cales. If the album runs in the background, so it exudes a calmness that lounge sampler nerves against right - here no note too is played.
