Great Music. Deep vocals and nice acoustics. I love the entire CD. "
-DJ, Joymusique89, IMIXRADIO.com, Chicago, IL - IMIXRADIO.com (Live365 Network)
What can I say? This record is pure class. Clever lyrics and understated arrangements hit you like really strong coffee after a hangover from too much indie rock rubbish...Refreshing.
--Eric Doberman - Eric Doberman, boston sound engineer
"Living proof that the major labels miss the best musicians: Saturday nights at the Honky Tonk have never been more fun! Willie T & Doctor X have the energy, enthusiasm, talent and attitude that make music captivating (not to mention downright fun). Listen to this album 3 times and you'll find yourself wondering how Hollywood has missed them. This is chart topping stuff!...You'll hear this group often on the Internet, but I recommend you buy the CD to hear all nine songs. My personal favorite is "All's not Quiet at the Western Front" but "Such a Tricky Word" may be one of the best, most thoughtful songs on the album. In short, you can now enjoy Saturday Night at the club "24/7" just by listening to this album."

Bio
From the depths of the murky netherworld that is the Boston music scene, Willie T & Doctor X emerge as a breath of fresh air, and a welcome antidote to the angry thrash din that that tends to dominate the Boston sound. They've cut their teeth on the club and college circuit throughout the Northeastern United States, dishing out their distinctive brand of pop/folk and rhythm & blues. Willie T's deep, resonant, vocal style and masterful self-accompaniment on acoustic and electric guitars is backed by the soulful blues harmonica, and gutsy vocals of Doctor X. Their musical influences are wide ranging--from Beatles and Stones to Ron Eliott and Jon Martin, Randy Burns, Al Anderson, Ry Cooder and Mark Knopfler to Bonnie Raitt, Leon Redbone meets Little Walter, and all the way to Warren Zevon! Their recordings capture on disc the exuberant spirit and drive so typical of their live performances. This is really fun, and very listenable music!
