Sensationally good

One report in the Mettmann WZ mentions that “The Tremors’ style showed through everywhere in (McDaniel’s) show at the Stadtwaldhaus: rhythms rooted in traditional U.S Blues were mixed with modern arrangements and melodies full of variety. To the joy of the fan community, well-known Tremors’ pieces could be heard as well as his own compositions.”

Said Bluesweek organizer Pieker, McDaniel was “sensationally good,” and added that although not all musical solo tours are successful, “with Cory McDaniel, you can be sure of an aura that was present at the Tremors’ shows of the past.”

McDaniel usually saved the tune “Big White Lies” for the encore.
