He has New York City in his veins, blues in his heart, & the music of many worlds in his gifted hands. The man in the shades, top hat and sharp suit on stage with that tight band is playing real blues right, informed by 50 years of mastery while imitating no one. The Hitman Blues Band, with Russell “Hitman” Alexander in the lead, plays the blues you’ve been looking for all your life.

Recorded live at Stonybrook University, NY on Thanksgiving weekend, 2005. Featuring tunes from the first two releases, plus three new originals and a killer version of the John Lee Hooker classic, "Boom Boom". Excellent playing and singing, and the live atmosphere that makes a Hitman concert such a fun time.
