Compared to his two previous releases, his new album sounds tighter. The slide guitar genius, the master of the laid-back grooves and sensible singer/songwriter recorded 'Plenty Of Time' with his own band.
Studio facilities were supplied by one of Europe's most beautiful and best-sounding music halls near Berne, Switzerland.
The album sounds perfectly 'direct' and brings Hank's songs to life.
He wrote all but one of the tunes, a previously unrecorded song by John Fogerty who kindly gave his permission.
If you are not familiar with Hank's music: check him out at one of his shows near you.
If J.J. Cale, Sonny Landreth or Ry Cooder are amongst your favorite artists, you will love Hank!
Reviews CCD 11060
Waren bereits die ersten beiden Platten Shizzoes 'Low Budget' und eben 'Walk' von nahezu atemberaubender Qualität, ist 'Plenty Of Time' ohne Zweifel seine bisher reifste Produktion geworden.

Der audiophile Geheimtip (…) – aber wie lange noch?
Audiophile 01/1999
Straight outta Bern (Switzerland), baby, comes a hot roots rock album from the nifty Hank Shizzoe and his tandem of backers Loose Gravel. (…) This group has gained some notoriety and very positive reviews for previews output yet remain a hidden secret
