Blue Mood

Blue Mood: The Songs of T-Bone Walker is a tribute album by Duke Robillard, dedicated to the songs of T-Bone Walker.

Critical reception
JazzTimes thought that Robillard "has the appropriately funky, slicing tone on 'T-Bone Shuffle', and 'T-Bone Boogie'."

AllMusic wrote that "the barroom blues and drum brushes on 'Love Is a Gamble' takes things down to a creepy crawl, bringing to mind Dr. John or Delbert McClinton."
