Music reviews of Iron Man

Music Review: Michael Burks is fantastic
Rating: 5 Stars

I recently had the privilege to see Michael Burks in concert - it was one of the best shows I have EVER seen. His guitar playing is second to none. I've never heard anyone play better - his technique and tone is fabulous. He played a bunch of songs I had not heard yet - I was expecting most of the songs from "I Smell Smoke". The band was very tight and all were execellent musicians. His first set lasted two hours. I know I was witnessing a blues legend (in my book, he already is one). Now to Iron Man. This may be one of the best blues-rock CDs ever produced. After hearing the CD, I recognize the songs from the first set of his show. The CD sounds very much like their show quality - excellent on every tune. I would highly recommend this CD to anyone who appreciates fantastic guitar playing and soulful vocals. I can't wait to see him again in another month or so. Get this CD - you won't be disappointed.

Description of Iron Man

Produced by Burks and Alligator president Bruce Iglauer and fueled by Burks' hard-driving road band, IRON MAN (featuring seven of twelve songs written or co-written by Burks) is an electrifying slice of emotional, rocked-out blues. His fiery fretwork, gruff, fervent vocals and overwhelming intensity are captured here live in the studio. The album features some of the hottest guitar playing and most soulful singing Burks has ever recorded. Burks wields his axe like a man possessed, breathing fire into every track, whether it's the charging rocker "Quiet Little Town," the chilling blues of "Icepick Through My Heart" or his sizzling take on Free's "Fire And Water." IRON MAN is a potent dose of contemporary blues, almost crushing in its intensity.
