By Bob Silvestri bobsilvestri@bestofwny.com As long as there are motorcycles, beer and juke joint to play it, blue collar rock and blues will always be popular. Following those ingredients Dennis King has released a CD titled Stinkin Dead Buffalo. While it may feature King as lead vocalist, guitarist Larry Saunders front man for his other project Random Access, wrote most of the songs and produced the disc. Bob Ginter and Paul Hermanson are on bass and drums respectively. Buffalo Music Hall of Famer Willie Haddath adds some masterful guitar solos on nine of the fourteen tracks. They stretch out Rockabilly style on "Slippery Slope", channel Boz Scaggs "Loan Me a Dime" era on "No Excuses" and get a Latin vibe on "Good Times Never Come". Other tracks of note include "Do Ya", "Tickle My Fancy" and "Once Had". For more information check out www.larrysaunders.com |

Trying to tell someone what a band sounds like can be as misleading as giving insight. With that in mind the new release from Larry Saunders Random Access, titled Memory Overloads, falls into a sound most associated with The Dead, Santana and Steve Miller or a country jam band if we must give categories. A percussive Latin undercurrent propels the first track, My Friend and slinky guitar sounds make Salty Seas a good listen. Enough, Special Friend and Tickle My Fancy are also worth mention. Why has a country feel while Torn features some nice fretwork. Everything comes together on Dark Of Days, a very strong track with guitars, vocal harmonies and piano making for a great sounding song.
