Patrick Allen is a guitarist / vocalist who has been part of the Minneapolis music scene since the mid-seventies. On his debut cd, 'bout time!, he offers up 13 original tunes that are steeped in a funk / blues feel. Fans of artists like Tower of Power, Little Feat, Steely Dan or Robben Ford will definitely find this to their liking. Several of the songs feature killer horn arrangements by Michael B. Nelson performed by his legendary section The Hornheads. Also featured is Hammond organ wizard Ricky Peterson plus a slew of Minneapolis' top notch players like drummers Bobby Vandell, Rob Stupka and Michael Velasquez, pianists Tom Hunter and Scott Miller, bassists Al Pettis and Scot Hornick and percussionist Estaire Godinez.
