Another Moment In Time (Memphis Blues Records) is the 11th release from Lightnin’ Rod & the Thunderbolts, the band’s first since 2020 although they’ve released a couple of singles. Lightnin’ Rod (Wilson) wrote all ten songs for the album, a solid set of blues, roots, and rock. Wilson handles vocals and guitar while backed by drummers Keith Green or Kevin Stiles, bassist Jesse Barton or Mike Estepp, keyboardists William (Mr. Bill) Lenk or John Pinero, and harmony vocalist Tiffany Wilson Hutton.

“Never Should Have Went To Mexico” opens the disc, a harrowing tale of crossing the border played with a Latin flair. The somber ballad “Hole In My Heart” follows, featuring some crisp fretwork from Wilson, and the mid-tempo “Ordinary Day” picks up the pace a bit. “The Lady Has The Blues” leans toward an R&B groove, and the title track is a ballad that includes guitar in more of a rock vein with a pop background underscoring Wilson’s warm vocals.

“3:30 In The Morning” is a reflective blues driven by guitar and piano as Wilson reviews his problems while trying to get a good night’s rest. The desperate “But The Pain” is dedicated to those suffering from chronic pain, both physical and emotional.

“Bird In My Window” is an acoustic blues, and I'm not sure who plays harmonica but it’s a nice touch. “Pathway To Your Love” is a strong ballad with fine guitar and piano work, and the closer, “Just Ran Out Of Love,” also features some excellent guitar work from Wilson.

Wilson has a versatile guitar attack, a snug fit in blues, rock, and even jazz, while his vocals are very good as are his original songs. The band provides marvelous backing. Another Moment In Time is another rock-solid set from Lightnin’ Rod & the Thunderbolts.
