Gary Clark, Jr. has been hailed by a number of critics as "the New Hendrix," which seems to be the fate of any guitarist who combines blues and rock styles at a considerable volume (particularly if they cover "Third Stone from the Sun"). While that's a blurb that may look good in Clark's press kit, it rather misses the point; Clark isn't a visionary, game-changing artist like Hendrix, but instead he's a canny singer, songwriter, and instrumentalist who has learned from the past and present, fusing them into a style that's distinctive and exciting if not necessarily revolutionary. Warner Bros. Is also pitching Blak and Blu as Clark's "groundbreaking debut album," when in fact it's just his major-label debut, with four indie releases preceding it, making the confidence and ambition of this set a bit less remarkable. But if Gary Clark, Jr. isn't likely to change the way we look at rock & roll or rewrite the aesthetic of the electric guitar, he is one of the most interesting talents to come out of the contemporary blues scene in quite some time. On Blak and Blu, most of Clark's tunes are solidly rooted in the blues, but he's also folded in hearty servings of hard rock, funk, retro-soul, and even a dash of hip-hop, and the way he let's the flavors mix is a big part of what makes this album work so well. There's an undertow of Northern Soul on the dance-friendly opener "Ain't Messin' Round," "Travis County" is a no-frills rocker that recalls the Stones in fifth gear, "The Life" finds Clark moving back and forth between singing and rapping in a streetwise tale of drug addiction, "Numb" recalls the punk blues attack of the Black Keys and the White Stripes in it's fuzzed-out blast, and the title cut samples both Gil Scott-Heron and Albert King as Clark melds conscious themes with blues backdrops. While the typical modern-day guitar hero goes out of his way to throw his dexterity in your face at every turn, here Clark shows off a tougher and more primal style, and though his chops are certainly good, he keep his solos concise and his attack muscular throughout.

Super comfy and pretty
Color: Black, Size: X-Large
Fit is nice and comfortable!!! Soft in the inside as well! It’s not huge but also doesn’t stick to me.
You can literally wear it down (casual with jeans or shorts) or dress up (like I did for Mother’s Day with a nice skirt and jacket)
Seems breathable enough for our California heat

Great buy. Love this shirt!
Color: Teal, Size: Medium
This shirt is so great. The color is absolutely stunning and vibrant! The material is so soft and comfortable. I use it as a casual work shirt with capri leggings, and stay comfortable all day. It definitely runs a bit large. I am short so it hangs very long but I like my shirts that way for work. I am usually somewhere between a small and a medium and I like a loose fit so I got a Medium. This was almost too big for me to wear, but I am making it work. I plan to buy this shirt in multiple colors and will get a small next time. For reference, I am 5"2', 126lbs, bra size 34 C.

Feels soft!
Color: Black, Size: 4X-Large
The fabric is great, as is the weight, fit, color. It covers the backside and doesn’t bulge around the hip. Would love to see it in several colors!
