Product Description: It's not hard to understand the appeal of Kenny Wayne Shepherd, currently being hailed as the heir to Stevie Ray Vaughan. He's young (an increasing rarity in blues and blues-related genres), he writes catchy songs, and his "Blue on Black" is widely played on rock radio. Trouble Is . . . is an enjoyable listen, from rockers like "Slow Ride" and "Chase the Rainbow," to swingy mid-tempo songs like "True Lies" and "(Long) Gone," to slower almost-ballads such as "Nothing to Do with Love" and the all-pervasive "Blue on Black". Expect to start hearing "I Found Love (When I Found You)" at high school proms and homecoming dances. It remains to be seen how Shepherd will develop, but he's among the most promising young guitarists out there today. -- Genevieve Williams

Customer Reviews
What a great surprise!
For years I wanted to get this cd for the song "Blue on Black". After finally getting it I find out it's a great rockin album from start to finish. I wish I bought it years ago. It even drove me to go see Kenny in a live show and it was one of the best concerts I have ever seen and I have to been to quite a few in my day. It doesn't get better than this.

Phenomenal work
The album is an awesome example of the incredible work this blues guitarist can produce. Must have for any library...

Great Blues - Texas Style
Kenny Wayne Shepherd has continued to show what it takes to be a classic blues musician and this CD of his earliest work is a great example. Later works he explores other blues genres (espcially Chicago Blues), but in this one I categorize it as a primarily Texas-style with some Chicago influences. I highly rate the entire CD in every way. I don't know of a single track that I dislike for all have riffs that I enjoy immensely. Many of these tunes are great traveling music that really help in passing the time covering long distances in my car or truck. I am definitely a true fan of his (and his band's) music and can't seem to get enough...particularly after the loss of Stevie Ray Vaughn.

Kenny Wayne Shepherd Rocks
This is the first KWS CD that I have purchased and it was promoted by listening to Blue on Black on a streaming electric blues audio station. I was hoping the rest of the CD was going to be good electric blues rock and I was not dissapointed. I thought the entire CD was darn good!

Old Blues with a new twist
I knew what I was getting when I bought this cd, but man, it still blew me away. I loved the fact that I could actually tell the influences of BB King, Muddy Waters, and more as I listened to Kenny Wayne Shepherd belt out the blues. An excellent product.
