And Freight Train's House Party has never been the same. Ivan keep playing the blues and keep it coming.

Best contemporary music in its genre today!
author: John R., Austin, TX
Only recently have I heard about Ivan by word of mouth. It seems like people are talking about this guy. So I decided I had to check out his work, and I was stunned at the guitar virtuosity and his melodies. He plays his axe so hard that I'll bet he needs to replace the neck at least once a night - this dude smokes'. Definitely recommend this one to all. I'm only sorry that I haven't discovered this band sooner; and I cannot wait to catch Ivan and his band live. Clapton's got nothing on this guy. When's the next CD coming out Ivan?

One of the very best original albums I've ever heard

Being a talent agent in Portland, Oregon over the past 15 years allows me to hear hundreds of talented musicians and their albums. Ivan Hunter's album was one of the very best I've had the pleasure to listen to. Strong & original. It grabbed my attention immediately.
