The Johnny Trouble Trio's latest album, The Rhythm of the Railroadtrack, is a high-energy collection of rockabilly and blues tracks that will get your toes tapping and your heart racing. From the moment the first track kicks in, it's clear that this is a band that knows how to play with passion and skill.
The album's standout tracks include "Rollin' Down the Line," a raucous tune that features some impressive guitar work from Johnny Trouble himself, as well as "Train Whistle Blues," a slow-burning blues number that showcases the trio's ability to play with nuance and feeling.
Throughout the album, the rhythm section of drummer Max Beat and bassist Slim Jim keep things moving at a steady clip, providing a rock-solid foundation for Johnny's guitar pyrotechnics. And while the lyrics may not break any new ground thematically, they're delivered with such energy and conviction that it hardly matters.
