Al Coffee has successfully accompanied himself on this awesome CD with two of the most recognizable names in the music industry: legendary producer/songwriter/drummer, Narada Michael Walden and blues great.guitarist/keyboardist/songwriter Lucky Peterson. With this level of incredible future hall of fame artists joining AL Coffee" McDaniel on this project, Blues In My Shoes it has genuine Grammy awards potential.
This phenomenal CD, which will be nationally distributed, includes songs ranging from traditional blues, to Chicago and Texas blues, mixed in with a nice touch of R&B. Each track, solid enough to stand on its own, comprises another act and scene that unfolds as it is listened to and considered as a whole. McDaniel's portrayal of the night club entertainer bedeviled by the woman to whom he is married, a woman who would possess him and destroy him, is particularly poignant.
With the two-disc A Shoe Is A Shoe (CPA, 2006), his previous release, representing a fork in the road and Blues in My Shoes the direction he has chosen, Al Coffee" McDaniel is an artist whose path is clearly one to follow.
