Review by Sam Felt

Ted Lewis and His Orchestra's album, The Medicine Man For The Blues, is a must-listen for any fan of classic blues and jazz. The album features Lewis' signature clarinet playing and his band's tight arrangements, which perfectly capture the spirit and energy of the era.

Listeners will be transported back in time with tracks like "The Blues My Baby Gave Me," which features Lewis' soulful vocals and a swinging horn section. "My Daddy Rocks Me" is another standout, with its catchy melody and infectious rhythm.

The album also features a number of instrumental tracks, including "Hocus Pocus," which showcases Lewis' virtuosic clarinet playing. The band's tight arrangements and dynamic interplay make these tracks just as engaging as the vocal numbers.
