Though willfully abstract in comparison to conventional interpretations, McPhee and Haker Flaten’s commitment to the blues is palpable. Blue Chicago Blues is grounded in the same core principles that bequeathed I-IV-V chord progressions and flatted notes, celebrating an enduring tradition in its endless capacity for emotional expression. -Troy Collins, All About Jazz
