You're probably familiar with Little Charlie & the Nightcats, but if you're not, here's another release by Charlie Baty, the superb guitarist, and Rick Estrin, master of the harmonica and the humorous lyrics. The addition of Frankie Randall, bass, and Joey Ventittelli, drums, had no impact on the incredibly tight unit Little Charlie & the Nightcats consistently present to the public. Guests like Rusty Zinn & James Harman fit like a hand in a glove, and add a new dimension to the songs they perform on.
You can't go wrong with Little Charlie & the Nightcats!
