#4 “He Came to Play” is the latest album by one of the best harmonicats on the scene, R.J.Mischo. This is top class harmonica album with great songs and superb musicianship and is destined for repeat playing! Fourteen tracks represent R.J.Mischo in excellent form. Most of the tracks are his originals with a few blues standars thrown in for a good measure most effective being “Bluebird Blues” by the legendary Sonny Boy Williamson No.1. “He Came to Play” is classic West Coast Blues party that wont let go from the first notes you hear. Superb backing band is cooking all the way and R.J. has a plenty room for his incredible harmonica playing, though band members also get a chance to shine individually, but as a unit they are magnificent! Two guitarists, Frank Goldwasser and a newcomer Chris “The Kid” Andersen are doing great job recreating the classic sounds of the fifties while strongly footed in this Millennium. This is beautiful collection of blues played with feeling and passion of dedicated bluesmen. With its primitive electric blues, humor and passion R.J.Mischo delivers an album that ranks among the best that were recorded in the last few years. He has definitely secured his position as one of the best and most innovative harmonica players of today. Go get it!
