about this album

Black Cat CD "Arthur Louis defined British rock, blues and reggae crossover music early on in his career. This album is an emphatic showcase of heart felt lyrics, distinctive vocals and captivating melodies with incisive guitar riffs." CDBaby “The musicians on these recordings are the cream of the crop and his delivery edges towards the poetic, words matter to Louis. He is equally at home with reggae influenced songs, hard blues rockers such as “Fast Car” and reflective material. From the eerie slide guitar and rich horn burst of “Born to Sing the Blues”, Louis has your attention and outside of the mighty Taj Mahal perhaps no other artist has quite this global touch. Fleet and biting guitar solos sound oh so right and the orchestral ambience of “Black Cat” adds a filmic quality, before the track starts to skank-delicious! The late night roll of “End of an Era” is the ultimate in intimate vulnerability, a song easing its way out of pain and what a chorale and counter point melody over the verses. Welcome back, boss.” Pete Sargeant Fairhearing (former Blues Matters editor) "Cleverly combining the sharp and expressive dynamics of horns and the more subtle keyboards, vying with distinctive guitar work, Louis brings new energy and expression to the form. Black Cat (the title track) is the personification of easy electric blues, contemporary, varied, beautifully chilled and the album positively purrs along with slick professionalism and gentle persuasiveness."
