This CD is actually a single – with just three songs. The tunes are all different, but the overall effect is of a bluesy singer songwriter motif. This is a cool disc that leaves me wanting to hear more from Dye.

Track by Track Review
Thick Skin A rock and roll singer songwriter style permeates this cut. I’d have to say that to this listener there are also traces of Bob Dylan in the mix. It’s a cool tune that has a vague familiarity to it.
All Over You This is a slow, stripped down bluesy number. It’s a killer mood, but the track seems to run on a bit long for this listener.
Natchez Stew Dye closes it with a back porch blues stomper. It’s not only a cool track, but also a great way to end this.
