Black Stone Cherry-Folklore And Superstition (2008)

"Folklore and Superstition" is the second album by Black Stone Cherry, a band based in Edmonton, Kentucky. Released in 2008, this album by the group comprised of Chris Robertson (vocals and guitar), Ben Wells (guitar), John Lawton (bass), and John Fred Young (drums) continues to embrace their hard rock sound infused with Southern rock, but with improved production, better arrangements, and a greater commercial appeal compared to their debut album released two years prior. Hits like "Blind Man", "Reverend Wrinkle", "The Bitter End", "Ghost of Floyd Collins", and "Long Sleeves" revisit that American hard rock style, clearly influenced by boogie blues and Southern rock, while other tracks, such as the more subdued "Thing My Father Said" and "Peace Is Free", offer a more relaxed feel.
