Oooh one of my favorites. I own a few Robert Cray albums. Love it ?

There are quite a few. To be honest there isn't a song that I personally don't like...

Try things like the old Cray classics from 1984 and up:

Phone Booth
Smoking Gun
Right Next Door
Forecast
Don't be Afraid of the Dark

Some of his newer stuff is soulfully written

Poor Johnny
Time Makes Two

His latest album has a few cool tracks, havn't had a proper listen but I will get there

There are a lot more, but imo that is the first few than come to mind and pretty much define Robert Cray for me.

Probably the reason he's known as "The Preacher".
Way cool.

Cant go wrong with Robert AJB

He has the slickest clean tone I have ever heard and he can sing!

Ouch ....

Nasty... Yeah Eric ain't the greatest singer...

But that's what mr Reverb is for ?

or perhaps mr AutoTune in extreme examples....
