Nothin' to lose
The group's 3rd album and first non-live album.
When you listen to the superb Blues CD, “Nothin’ To Lose,” by the fantastic band Johnny & The Mo-Tones, only one word comes to mind: Wow! This group has all the right grooves as their melodies are irresistible and so are the vocals and instrumentation. Opening up the album, the title track, “Nothin’ To Lose,” impresses with strong vocals and a vibrant energy from the piano and excellent sax riffs while the bass and drums keep the steady beat. They take the tempo down a few notches on the songs, “That’s Why I Sing The Blues” and "Wish You Were Young Again” giving this album a nice variety of mixes. The song, “The White cliffs of Dover,” highlights some brilliant solo work by the guitar and horn giving the audience a taste of the fantastic caliber of musicianship. Their rendition of the song, “Hey Joe,” is awesome as they put a nice spin on it. Fans of the Blues will really enjoy the intoxicating songs on the spectacular album, “Nothin’ To Lose.” -

GET GONE
Recorded live at the legendary recording studio, FAME STUDIOS, Muscle Shoals, Alabama
Blogging The Blues - "The Road Trip continues as Johnny & The Mo-Tones visit Fame Studios, Muscle Shoals, AL, home of the Muscle Shoals Sound. Powerhouse blues. Featuring some of the Midwest's finest musicians, Johnny Altenburgh, Chris O'Keefe, Otis McLennon, John Greiner, Mitch Viegut and others."
"This is swamp-rockin' Memphis soul, slightly updated but with a reverence for the old-fashioned blues-rock sound, with nasty guitars, gritty vocals, sassy original songs, and a borrowed rhythm section of Dave Hood and Mike Dillon (from the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section.)" Muse Inc. Contemporary Blues Market
