Tom Wilson: Buy

The newest release from Tom Wilson. Seemingly spawned from the mud of the Mississippi Delta, Dog Years steeped in the spirit of the blues. It also reflects Tom’s beloved hometown, Hamilton, Ontario. It is raw, honest and unpretentious, primal and a little dirty, but possessing its own unique grace. If Steeltown could sing, chances are it would sound a lot like Tom Wilson.

Tom Wilson and Bob Lanois come together to create the cosmic campfire. This album is made of wood and earth. Recorded out at Bob's shack in the woods.

Back in the early 80's, long before he led Junkhouse or became one-third of Blackie & The Rodeo Kings, Hamilton rock icon Tom Wilson cut his musical teeth with a killer rock band, The Florida Razors. "New York Screamin'," for example, offers rough, raw rock 'n' roll with that already-overpowering Wilson voice at the helm.

Later in their history, "American Girl" - as close as the band got to a hit - is also as "pop" as they got, earning some commercial and college radio play with a catchy melody, and saxophone and blues harp touches. The album includes three previously unreleased tracks from some unmaterialized projects, and three every early ones that see the band "being born."
