Hwy 321 Blues Album of the Month: Review

BRANDON SANTINI – WHICH WAY DO WE GO?
Momojo Records

Like Popa Chubby, seven time BMA-nominated harp player Brandon Santini was off the road for a while, recovering from back surgery. But he celebrates his return to center stage with this in-yourface serving of tunes that will have you thinking as well as rocking along to the heavy beat.
A North Carolina native now based in Illinois, Brandon reunites with longtime Beale Street playing partner/guitarist/producer Jeff Jensen, and he’s joined by Albert Castiglia’s bassist, Cliff Moore,
and drummer Ron James. Another longtime friend, Timo Arthur, sits in on six-string, too.

Blues for the brain and more, you’ll dig “Which Way Do We Go?,”“The War Ain’t Over,” “Ain’t Turning Back,” “Do What Comes Naturally,” “Mile After Mile,” “Working on a Mystery,” “Trouble Stay
Away,” “Blues So Bad” and “She Got the Way.”
