It has been decades since the American blues artist Robert Cray had a worldwide hit in 1987 with the song Right Next Door. He also established his name in the Netherlands with this, with a soulful voice and tasteful bluesy guitar playing. On the album That's What I Heard, you can hear not only that Cray has refined his style more over the years, but also that he is still in good shape. It is a true

Songs that come together in a pure and warm sounding production, with a leading role for the ever-inspired singing and playing Cray. (MR)more
