Robert Randolph & The Family Band
Colorblind (Warner)
Robert Randolph is the master of the pedal steel. Just check out one of his live performances and I think you’ll agree. On his new release Colorblind,
The much anticipated new album features performances by Eric Clapton, Dave Matthews, and LeRoi Moore. Eric Clapton and Randolph team up on the Doobie Brothers classic, “Jesus Is Just Alright.” The band had the potential to really explore this song in a new way, but instead it’s just, well, alright. Not spectacular.
By the time the band gets to track 10, “Thankful and Thoughtful” the heat is finally turned up and the band starts cooking. If only they would have made it to the stove a little quicker.
