    God given talent on display. He's brought tears to my eyes....not the songs or lyrics. Just because he is soooo good. The complete package as far as playing and singing. My all time favorite

    I have loved Robert Cray ever since I saw him in a black and white video sitting on a stool just with his guitar singing Smoking Gun on December 31st 1989 in New York at Radio City Music Hall. I grew up with Blues playing Brothers, eight of them with two number one bands when they were in their teens. The blues and the Beatles where the two different genres met were the Blues. My lullabies. All the blues doing this make me smile. And Robert Cray young Bob so dubbed by BB King is the best of them. I love especially, his way of singing and playing that "rubberbander sounding" guitar of his!, as I call it. Reminiscent of Robert Johnson and Lightnin' Hopkins...ha ha! So god,...I wonder, right next door, the dream, I can't go home and of course, Strong Persuader. I. Cover them all with my brothers...' can't be beat! Thanks babyyy. :)

      That’s right Sweetheart! Thanks ! I almost forgot about that video that came out in the early 90’s I do believe 😤💪🏻✌🏻! It’s hard to beat His Smooth groove he seems to have stayed right in and he wouldn’t be such a great BluesMan had his awesome sound and groovy way had ever changed ! I like REAL PEOPLE AND REAL PEOPLE WILL BE THE SAME IN 20 years as they were when u seen them today✌🏻✌🏻

    My favourite guitar and voice. The guitar is crisp and clear like a bell and every tone is a surprise with another sound. No effects, no distortion , a true guitar. Fantastic voice and guitar speech. Thats the real pure sound and feeling. Great !!!!!

    I was first exposed to Robert Cray around 1986 or 87 with the Strong Persuader album and I wore out the tape playing it on road trips. So crazy how the same kind of music can still have its own unique sound with such great artists.

    Around 30 minutes, you will 'time makes two love' which is a great song he played at Eric Clapton's guitar festival where he quite some time ago and I think it was the Cotton Bowl. It is on my DVD given to me by Kev and Shan as it was maybe his first where he simply wrote everyone he wanted to hear (of course it included Robert Cray) and he was doing his best to stay sober while being such a brilliant mind, he had to seek help from others and he openly let people know throughout the world. His good friend, Jeff Beck, made it a point to have a cold pint after his session just to remind everyone that not all people who drink are drunks that have to tell the world.

    For me the introduction to Robert Cray came through a Freddie King Greatest Hits album featuring Help Me Through The Day - with that song I was hooked on the Blues.
    I went to the local music store and asked if they had anything similar and they told me about this guy called Robert Cray that had just released a new album called Strong Persuader. They put it on in the store and we stood there listening to the entire album together, wow, what an experience that was.
    At 14 years of age I knew that my life had just taken a turn, I had found the meaning of life, in a musical sense.
    Since then and to this day, now in my forties I have been and forever will be a devoted fan of his music.
