"Cuffs Off means freedom to me" states Dr. Will about his new album. And that's the cure that the blues doctor from Munich prescribes himself after three albums filled with "Voodoo Power". "Cuffs Off" is Dr. Wills "Back to the Roots" album. Mainly acoustic, reduced to the essential and recorded with friends, that's the mix that makes this album special. Reduced percussions instead of thundering drums. Mandoline, banjo and fiddle replaces the electric guitar. Dr. Will invited his fellow San2 as sparring partner to this recording who adds a fascinating counterpount with his soulful voice and his distinctive harmonica play. The two vocalists get supported by Dr. Wills live band, The Wizards.
