CD Review
The Oliver White Group CD Control is right on. These
12 songs are outstanding . Oliver White on guitar and
vocals, Jim
Choate on bass, Mike Baysden drums, and Jason Starkey on keys makes
this
is one tight CD. Some gunslingers were also broght in for Control like Wes Jeans
and local hero Lance Lopez. This CD Control with it's southern Hard
Blues sound has a strong 70's feel ! On the CD Control ; Track 1 Retribution or Track 4 What's In Store could have been on
a Nazareth album. These songs are a great example of the
CD's strong southern roots. Oliver White's music is not expermental
Blues. Rather Oliver's music is more along the lines
of what the Sex Pistols did. The Pistols took rock and drove it
in to a wall ! Well now I am not calling Oliver Punk Blues. He
just does what he does with a lot of energy and a lot of control.
Live, Oliver is as good as he is in Control
. He takes the
Blues adds the sweet southern soul of Texas rock plays the hell
out of it, so now what do you get? The Oliver White
Group! Here are some dates where you can experience the Oliver
