Album Review: Jimi Beavis - Gentleman Giant

Classic grooves, brilliant playing, fun songs and rustic delivery make this album a damn enjoyable one and one that would certainly inspire a good many people to go and check him out live.

Beavis launches into a faithful homage to the blues and jazz legends that he admires with his debut release. Backed by a killer rhythm-and-horns section, No Job, No Prospects and Easy Lovin' provide a great platform for Beavis to showcase his simple-yet-dynamic songwriting style. Additionally, what sounds like a live-in-the-studio recording gives the whole thing a little bit of extra class and attitude. Classic grooves, brilliant playing, fun songs and rustic delivery make this album a damn enjoyable one and one that would certainly inspire a good many people to go and check him out live.
