Rob TOGNONI - Ironyard Revisited 2008


Rob TOGNONI - Ironyard Revisited 2008

Blues 

Although not very well-known stateside, Australian Rob Tognoni is an incendiary blues-rock guitarist whose distinctive sound has often been called a cross between AC/DC and B.B. King…and after listening to songs like "Shoot, Hoot, Electrocute" and "Devil Outta Me," methinks said description meets the mark. Thanks to Blues Boulevard, Ironyard Revisited will be Tognoni's first album (out of seven) to receive North American distribution. My fellow fans of a guitar-driven, blues-rock sound chiseled out of cold granite will want to check this one out!

Here comes another album of uncompromising high-octane power-blues-rock by one of the most adept practitioners of the genre.

At times comparable to an unholy alliance between AC/DC and B.B. King, Australian guitar virtuoso Rob Tognoni has been electrifying the scene for several decades now, picking up accolades from knowledgeable blues guitar aficionados all along the way.

A truly stunning guitarist with killer licks and a dirty-low-down blues-rock feel; on his new album, IRONYARD REVISITED, his fancy fretwork, crushing chords and sparkling solos slice through the rock solid rhythm section, rousing the listener to multiple "eargasms".
By A. Falckenbach.
