There are many Taylor fans out there who are familiar with the Blues Historian Blog. Tom Gary has written about Taylor and posted several of his videos on his blog since Taylor won AI. Tom recently posted a review of Taylor’s concert DVD, Whomp At The Warfield. I have posted an excerpt below. I hope you’ll click on the link and read it in its entirety. It’s rare that Taylor fans get to read intelligent, positive reviews from people who actually know and appreciate music. This one is worth your time. Leave Tom a nice comment while you’re at it!
Blues Historian Review: Taylor Hicks, Whomp At The Warfield
I received this DVD from some fine folks at one of Taylor Hicks fan clubs. I suppose a review is not really necessary since his fans will love the DVD no matter what I say. However, I can safely say for those of you who haven’t listened to this guy yet, that this DVD is for you. Taylor Hicks is the real deal. I have said this many times, but it is true the man can sing the blues, soul, R&B and rock and roll. Whomp At The Warfield is mostly a soul filled romp recorded live at The Warfield in San Francisco back in 2007. The band in incredibly tight and Hicks has both the band and the fans pumped up from start to finish.

This was one of the best of his 2007 concerts. You really feel you are there watching Taylor singing & playing his guitar & harmonica. Thank you for this article. I concur.
