Smokin Joe Kubek & Bnois King "My hearts in Texas"

"I've been listening to these guys for years and this is double iceing on any Blues fans cake. The audio and video are clean and well mixed. These guys are having fun and show it, good times for every one. If you've never heard these guys before you are in for a treat. I will say Kings vocals are not the best, never has been, but gets away with it due to style and soulful intent. This one's highly recomended for all the right reasons.
I wish Amazon had a 3 Criteria rating that would make for a quicker and more accurate rating of Cd's DVD's and Blu-ray's.
1. Performance 2. Quality of Audio 3. Quality of Video (for DVD's and Blu-ray's)
1.***** 2.***** 3.*****
Bands that wish to have there performances recognized and recorded should be held to a standard. Poor audio, no matter how good the performance, is still a bad product. Those who would still purchase sub-standard audio quality recordings and rank that product highly are not doing the industry or the band justice. Demand better and we will get it, settle for less and that's what you'll get."

"I have seen this band twice live and this DVD is a nice way to relive those memories. The music is great and the film makes it fill like your right there. I would have liked to seen more shots of the crowd and the bar but overall I loved it!!"
Awesome Performance!

"I am so happy I bought the "My Heart's in Texas" DVD with Smokin' Joe Kubek and Bnois King. Out of the 50 plus blues and blues/rock DVD videos I have in my growing collection, this one is easily in my top five. These guys are fantastic guitar players and Bnois King is a wonderful vocalist. Smokin' Joe with his stinging licks and Bnois' melodious tones provide an awesome blend of their guitar playing styles. They are good at seamlessly trading the lead back and forth. If you like Texas style blues, you need this DVD for sure because this is Texas style blues at its rockin' best! You won't believe your eyes and ears when you hit the play button with this disc in your player. It is nearly impossible to sit still during this live performance as can be evidenced by the crowded dance floor at the J & J Blues Bar in Fort Worth, Texas where this show takes place."
