My Baby Done Gone Chicago boasts the emergence of many great musicians: Muddy Waters, Lonnie Brooks, Buddy Guy and Howlin' Wolf to name just a few. Home to the blues, it is the southern rim of the Windy City that swells with musical passion and rocks with emotion and soul. Immersed in this environment, Eric Lambert trained his voice and tuned his guitar in the tradition of Chicago's finest. If you like Blues rock, then you will more tahn likely like Eric Lambert and the Laughing Gnomes. Eric Lambert dedicates this album to the memories of Duane Allman, Jerry Garcia, Berry Oakley and Lowell George and you can hear some of their influences within the tracks. I can also hear other Blues guitarists such as early Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Jeff Healey. There's a lot of excellent tracks on this debut album 'Some For You,' 'Hard Luck Man,' 'Dirt Brown Pillow', and 'Gnome Blues', to name a few, the only disappointing track for me, and I am probaly nit-picking is the folky acoustic track 'When Zachary Smiles', I have no problem with the finger picking, but the vocals are just too thin and weak. Apart from this one weak track, the rest is excellent. Recommended!!! Visit Eric Lambert & The Laughing Gnomes on the web at worldpeaceday.com/gnome.html.
