Smartly crafted solos, a lively tune stack and some eclectic side-stepping are the primary markings on harmonica ace Jason Ricci’s current offering. The curiously haunting leadoff track, “Casco Bay”, gives way to a lively shuffle, the Ruth Brown-popularized “5-10-15”, the first of multiple pleasing appearances by Ricci’s spouse, vocalist Kaitilin Dibble. The instrumental “Baked Potato” showcases Ricci’s skill with masterful solo construction, building lyrically to its conclusion. Ms. Dibble’s own “Wrong Kind of Easy”, coupled with a duet run-through with Ricci of the Little Walter hit “Nobody But You” stands out here as does another duet outing, “Why Don’t We Sleep On It”.
