You would never guess from Kenny Wayne Shepherd's fiery playing that the guitarist is still only in his teens. On his debut, Ledbetter Heights, Shepherd burns through a set of rather generic blues-rock ravers that are made special by his exceptional technique. It may still be a while before he says something original, but he plays with style, energy, and dedication, which is more than enough for a debut album. ~ Thom Owens, All Music Guide
My first KWS CD. Purchased as I was looking for his at the time new hit "Blue on Black". I was pleasantly surprised with this initial offering. Worth every penny and a party favorite. Have only grown more of a KWS fan since.
