Ted Hawkins - Watch Your Step
Review by Megan Ihnen
Ted Hawkins' album, Watch Your Step, is a masterpiece of blues and folk music. The album features 10 tracks, each one a unique blend of Hawkins' soulful voice and his skillful guitar playing. From the opening track, "Watch Your Step," to the final track, "Sorry You're Sick," Hawkins takes the listener on a journey through the ups and downs of life.
The standout track on the album is "The Lost Ones." Hawkins' voice is haunting and the lyrics are deeply moving, telling the story of those who have been forgotten by society. The song is a testament to Hawkins' ability to capture the essence of the human experience in his music.
Another highlight of the album is "Who Got My Natural Comb." The song is a playful and upbeat tune that showcases Hawkins' sense of humor and his ability to write catchy, memorable songs.

Summary by Megan Ihnen
Comments
Unbelievable that Ted Hawkins seems to be growing more obscure. I discovered him in the late 80's and never let go. What a fantastic debut. Songwriting, singing, playing, ... jeez, just about everything is inspired. I still have moments where I just have to hear this album Highly recommend this one. You will not be disappointed.
One of the last true blues singers
This song is awesome old man, I hope youre still alive!
Fuck this is good
