Review by Siona Singletary

Calvin Russell's album Wild Wild West offers a raw and powerful blend of blues, rock, and country that captures the essence of the American West. The album features Russell's distinctive gravelly voice, accompanied by his guitar and a tight backing band.

The opening track, "Crossroads," sets the tone for the album with its driving rhythm and searing guitar solos. "Soldier" and "One Meatball" showcase Russell's storytelling abilities, while "This Is My Life" and "Rockin' the Republicans" feature catchy, sing-along choruses.

Throughout the album, Russell's lyrics touch on themes of freedom, rebellion, and the struggles of everyday life. His gritty vocals and guitar work add an authentic edge to the music, making it feel like it was born in the dust and dirt of the Wild West.

Summary by Siona Singletary

Wild Wild West is a must-listen for fans of Americana and roots music. It's a testament to Russell's talent as a songwriter and performer, and a fitting tribute to the spirit of the American West.
