"Forty Days & Forty Nights" by Ellis Hooks
I came to know this wonderful singer/songwriter from Alabama when I heard his 2004 record, "Uncomplicated." It is actually Ellis Hooks's third record, but the title emphasizes his style: no-nonsense songs played with integrity and heart. Hooks has a voice like Sam Cooke but writes a bit like James Taylor. Hugely underrated, but raw talent usually is.
