Kenne's debut CD is a fantastic debut! He's got blues,rock jazz etc... for influences. This CD has been on my playlist for several months now, & every time i listen to it i hear more & more influences. (From T-Bone Walker to Chuck Berry) Kenne's got some great folks working with him too including: Keyboardist Johnny Neel(allman Bros.),& sax player Dennis Taylor(The Duke Robillard Band). So that there should tell ya something, Right? 13 tracks in all! This CD proves he's got the talent & ability to be the next big thing, THIS IS AMERICAN MUSIC! Pick this baby up before they're gone! Rock on, Greg.

Kenne “Cannonball” Cramer’s ‘Midnite Ride’ takes the listener on a hugely enjoyable musical odyssey through American roots music, ranging from the blues infused rock’n’roll of ‘Good Lovin’ (Is Hard To Find)’, with it’s wailing harp, rocking piano (Neel again) and hard riffing sax (Dennis Taylor), though the rockabilly flavoured ‘Honey Pie’ with it’s jangling piano and steel guitar, to the Chet Atkins’ styled musical snippet of ‘Fight Song’. In between, Cramer, who has a natural rock’n’roll vocal style crosses Jerry Lee Lewis with Chuck Berry on the wildly rocking ‘Christine; lays down some mellow late-night grooves, replete with rolling piano and baying sax on ‘Sweet On Me’; conjures up the image of T-Bone on the 50’s big band styled R&B of the hot swinging ‘Cannonball Jumps Again’; while infusing ‘Blues In The Morning’ with traces of “Hi-Heel Sneakers’ and “I Like Bread And Butter’ plied by Neel’s hard rocking piano and Cramer’s Duane Eddy inflected blues guitar. Cramer’s Delta styled slide on ‘Black Widow’, the jumping title track with it’s swinging fat toned guitar and cool jazzy B3, and the Jimmy McCracklin / rockabilly hybrid ‘I Don’t Know’ are further delights on this fine set.

Kenne's debut CD is a great showcase of his many talents, showing he's a triple threat: a gifted song writer, guitarist & singer. It's hard to choose a favorite track: Maybe the rockin' "Good Lovin'" or the sexy "Sweet on Me". But if I had to pick just one, it'll probably be the bluesy "Black Widow". What a fun CD!
