J.T.Lauritsen & The Buckshot Hunters - Blue Eyed Soul Vol. 2 (2020) [CD Rip]

It has been 25 years since the first album of JT Lauritsen & The Buckshot Hunters was released and they celebrate that with the follow-up to Blue Eyed Soul Vol. 1, of course entitled Blue Eyed Soul Vol. 2.

The album has 11 tracks, mostly own penned songs, two were written in collaboration with Monika Nordli and with Mike Zito and one cover was recorded, a beautiful adaptation of Don Robey's You're Gonna Make Me Cry. The wonderful arrangements for the wind section were written by Børge-Are S. Halvorson. That was possible because the 5-piece band was expanded to 8 with saxophone, trumpet and trombone, and they will continue to do so in the future.
