[TR24][OF] Gary Clark Jr. - Blak and Blu - 2012 (Rock, Blues)

Gary Clark Jr. is a rocking soul man for a new generation. The 27-year-old singer-guitarist shows his deep appreciation for classic hip-hop by fusing it with contemporary soul and rock. Clark has been compared to countless legends including Jimi Hendrix. The virtuosity Clark displays is profound and puts many modern rock shredders to shame. This collection which features twelve Clark originals also includes a blistering cover of Little Johnny Taylor’s “Third Stone From The Sun/If You Love Me Like You Say” and two bonus tracks. Blak and Blu has already received praise from publications including the Washington Post, The New York Times, Entertainment Weekly and the Boston Globe. Reviews
