The Wood Brothers - Ways Not To lose (Blue Note B000E6UK4G)

The Wood Brothers are a guitar- bass duo. They combine into a blues - country- folk - jazz- gospel kind of mix. (I'm tempted to stop the review at that). Chris (bass) and Oliver (guitar and vocals) are brothers who have played in other bands and just got together and released this album. I heard a couple of tracks on the Paul Jones show on Radio 2 on Thursdays (yes the Manfred Mann Paul Jones - I recommend the show) and they really hit the spot - you know, that one in your stomach that's attached to your spine. Sample Atlas as a great example of their work, or The Luckiest Man strikes a particular chord with me. More information available here. Just go and listen. You won't regret it.
