 Robert
Cray is a five-time Grammy Award winning
artist long acclaimed for his prowess in the
idioms of blues and Southern soul. Robert obviously
enjoyed the enthusiastic crowd on hand, sharing
"you guys ought to be like Grateful Dead
fans and follow us around the country".
A mix of old classics like 'Strong Persuader',
'Our Last Time', and 'Smoking Gun' were interspersed
among his newer material off his latest CD,
'Time will tell. Opening for Robert was John
Hiatt and the Goners, joined by blues guitar
legend Sonny Landreth. The Goners played with
intensity, with Sonny delivering his special
brand of slide guitar. A slow, smooth version
of "feels like rain" showcased John
Hiatt's vocal ability at its best. Another fine
show at the Pageant!
