With nineteen other albums under his belt, Gary Hoey is doing his thing again this time with the new album “Dust and Bones”. A true blues triumph, it’s where Gary belongs. This Veteran has taken his Strat, and paid his homage to the blues gods, and they are pleased. The album throws us into a Robert Johnson-esque song with a modern twist of course, called “Boxcar Blues”. Hoey is clear to display his influences especially with the next track, “Steamroller,” which is a tribute to the legendary Johnny Winter. This is followed with a power ballad, “Coming Home,” featuring Lita Ford that really stokes the coals of this smoldering hot album. The longing for home, not just the place, but the people, especially that special someone that the life of a traveling musician knows all too well.

Dust & Bones finds Gary Hoey picking up where he left off on 2013’s Deja Blues. Once again, he’s in a heavy blues mode, cranking up his amp to the breaking point and indulging in some old-school theatrics, like working his wah-wah pedal so it sings like Hendrix. That’s not the only guitar god whose work is apparent here. “Steamroller” is dedicated to Johnny Winter, and there are echoes of Billy Gibbons and Eric Clapton, all filtered through Hoey’s dexterous chops. Now a veteran of 25 years — he nods toward his surfy beginnings on the album-closing “Soul Surfer” — Hoey certainly can tip his hat to his peers but he has his own style, one that’s designed as an eternal homage to the glory days of classic rock guitar. Dust & Bones hits these points quite strongly: nominally a blues album, it’s really a testament to the blues-rock of the late ’80s, a time when the guitar hero truly thrived by drawing from the past to celebrate the present. In 2016, Hoey isn’t exactly alone — there’s Joe Bonamassa, for one — but this affectionate glance back at six-string pyromania inadvertently shows us how much things have changed over the years. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
