The very title suggests this 2015 album is bright and open, and it is. There's a nice, relaxed groove to this record as Ford plays as much Southern-fried soul and funky jazz as he does blues. All of these sounds intersect at Ford's sweet spot. He's a sly, versatile guitarist who can dip into a variety of styles without seeming like a dilettante, and on Into the Sun, that includes the lazy acoustic opener \"Rose of Sharon,\" which finds its counterpart on \"Justified,\" a backporch blues duet with Keb' Mo'. Other guests are here -- ZZ Ward shines on \"Breath of Me,\" Warren Haynes spars on \"High Heels and Throwing Things,\" Sonny Landreth shows up for \"So Long 4 U\" -- a sign of Ford's generosity. Then again, this wide array of players fit neatly into Ford's soulful style, which is unified by its love of rhythm \u0026amp; blues -- meaning both the groove and the long, yet unflashy, solos -- and open-hearted vibe. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47649171308831,"sku":"819873011460","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/beed6bd850a6668cd6d5d787d74a16a2.jpg?v=1777814209","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/into-the-sun","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
