Stealin’ . As Bluesy as you can get
This track has a great groove going on , as bluesy as you can get .Some very smooth harmonica and guitar lead work . I found it hard to concentrate on the lyrics , as I always do with songs that have a good feel to them . My feet tapping and my body swaying , I got lost in the sound and that is what , in my opinion , makes “Stealin’“ a track worth having in your collection. Well done Francois. Two thumbs up .

Blues All The Way
This song is Blues music for sure. It has all the feel of what Blues is. It has a groove just like some of the songs me and my band plays. It is in the groove as well. Make no mistake this is Blues what Blues Music is.

Review of Stealin’
My friend has sent us a great blues tune , the lead into this song with the guitar reminds me of a Muddy Waters tune! Francois brings on the harp and nails this tune as a true blues tune I do not have a problem in that label ! If you are a blues person well just open up your ears an enjoy another great sound of a catchy little tune wailing out the blues!

Not the Stealin' I recall
I have played a lot of stuff by this talented harmonica player and appreciate his talent. I spent a lot of time waiting for him to perform on this song but when he began it was good stuff. He is a natural. However this old, tired bit of blues nonsense does him no favours at all. Stealin' is a great song from way back ' Stealin' stealin' pretty momma don't you tell on me. I'm stealing back to my same ole used to be.' I recommend that Francois tries his hand at something suiting his talents: Waiting For A Train on The Prisoner's Songbook (Spotify, CD Baby etc). The guitarist is good but the format is old hat. I wish Francois all the best.

Nice playing, puts you in the mood for sure! Love the phrasing and how the harp is powerful and out front like it should be LOL. The groove is timeless, and on time. Overall tone and musician ship shows in this tune.

Peeling back the layers
Good song, Good musicians well done. If there was was one piece of constructive advice I could suggest is I hear the blues I hear good players I hear a good song but I don't know if I hear you. You need your signature on everything you do you could pick Stevie Ray Vaughn out of a hundred Guitar players and singers because of his voice and his guitar style. I heard a song by Herbie Hancock feat; Pink and John Legend there was a guitar solo in it it was amazing but I knew who it was because of his earmarks in his playing Jeff Beck. Great stuff keep up the good work keep it coming.

Lovely Blues
Oh yes, I really liked this. He has a very strong voice, a good voice for this genre. I knew from the opening notes from the guitar that I was going to like this tune. Great guitar playing and harmonica playing and its so easy to make a blues song boring over interesting and these guys nailed it. I would love to see them live...

Stealin' by Francois Spanneburg
Great intro on guitar on this self penned song and quality of playing stays high throughout with additional agile, authentic, nice toned harp. Gruff vocals with darkly humorous lyrics but for me the lyrics are where the song falls down a little. they sound a bit thrown together. All in all a nice, if slightly cliched, blues track with great instrumental prowess. A name to watch.
