    Goin’ Platinum, meanwhile, places him in Auerbach’s Easy Eye Sound studio with his house band--comprising guitarist Duane Eddy (yes, that one) plus Memphis Boys Gene Chrisman and Bobby Woods--and the results elevate his work even higher.

    It’s a wonderful album, and further proof that you’re never too old, if you’re good enough.

    He delivers stompers and torch-carriers alike with irresistible power, all couched in sonic opulence. [Feb 2018, p.111]

    Dan Auerbach takes Finley further away from his church-and-porch roots with a brief to present the artist as a classic all-rounder and on 10 songs written by Auerbach, John Prince and Nick Lowe, he proves himself just that. [Jan 2018, p.89]

    A lush, teak-panelled Nashville soul record.

    The results are decidedly retro-modern--that bit too well produced to have been authentically blaring out of a roadside bar in the 1960s--but are steeped in blues and soul and a lot of fun.
