The latest from this veteran Boston band continues a long trek of excellence that began in the mid-‘80s. This is a hard-hitting mix of vintage rock and R&B with a punk attitude. Whitfield has a mountain of a voice and can bowl one over with his soulful attack. Imagine Little Richard and Muddy Waters filtered through early Stones and The Stooges. As the tunes clock in slightly past the three-minute mark, there is a singles-savvy approach that’s a firm shock to the system. Nothing groundbreaking here, but if you’ve come to party, this be the place! – Eric A. Harabadian
