Omar & The Howlers - Bamboozled
Review by Dmitry Caljkusic
Omar & The Howlers' album Bamboozled is a blues-rock masterpiece that showcases the band's impeccable musicianship and Omar Dykes' soulful vocals. The album features a mix of original compositions and covers of blues classics, all delivered with a raw, gritty energy that is sure to get listeners' feet tapping.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Hard Times in the Land of Plenty," which features a driving rhythm section and searing guitar work from Omar Dykes. The lyrics speak to the struggles of everyday life, but the band's performance imbues the song with a sense of hope and resilience.
Another highlight of the album is the band's cover of Muddy Waters' "Mannish Boy," which features a blistering guitar solo from Omar Dykes and a tight, propulsive rhythm section. The band's reverence for the blues tradition is evident in their faithful yet inventive interpretation of this classic tune.
