A must-have album for Blues lovers and one of the peaks reached by the genre, at least in the '90s. John Campbell, that little devil from Louisiana, seems to feel the Blues and makes you feel it in your gut. Most of the tracks are co-written by Campbell and producer Dennis Walker, who also brings along the musicians from the Robert Cray Band, an excellent backing band for Campbell. This album is packed with great songs ("Wild Streak," "Tiny Coffin," "World of Trouble," "Take Me Down," "Devil in My Closet"), but the three that I find a cut above the rest and elevate the album to masterpiece status for me are "Voodoo Edge" and the two intensely moving prayers/supplications of a damned soul, "Angel of Sorrow" and the title track, both piercing.
