Track 7 - Jon Montgomery & The Exile Blues Band - I Ain ’ t Got Nobody - Oh man , make is scream brother , make it scream . This is classic , old , nasty blues . The vocals are a perfect fit to the hypnotic groove . The droning underlying riffs are made all the more menacing by the massive soul-filled leads . The piano that comes in and bounces around for several bars is just cool . Lest we forget who the powerhouse is , as the piano finishes its solo , that guitar comes back in and smacks the listener in the face . Not to be forgotten , the piano strikes back with some pounding chords as the vocals take us to the end . Honestly , by the end of the song all I can think is “ WOW ”.
