Tubie Pushe’e and his outstanding third release, “Blue With Envy,” shines brightly with original and creative Texas-style blues. The first track, “Gimme Back My Car,” leads off the disc with a flurry of good ol’ blues. The vocals belt out the trials of love gone wrong, while the harmonica blows harmonious riffs and the walking bass line moves the steady and solid beat. Generous helpings of organ hooks and edgy guitar riffs heat up the bluesy tones of “Me and My Woman” which gives this song a deep, country roots feel. A bit of down home country flavor highlights the vocals while the piano complements the sweet guitar solo on “Home.” “Skubie’s Do 2” is a lush and lyrical guitar solo which is not only blues expression at its best but shows the great talent offered up on this disc. Pushe’e not only displays his love of the blues with engaging style but he also offers some diversity with tempo changes throughout the album. You can’t go wrong listening to the well-fashioned songs of “Blue With Envy” by Tubie Pushe’e, as it is packed with terrific vocals, lyrics, and a solid support of instruments.
