In Their Words: “‘I Caught a Break’ is part of the story that is A Bluesman Came to Town. It came out of a writing session with Tom Hambridge and Richard Fleming. After much hard work and few setbacks the young man in the story finally has some success. It’s a classic rock ‘n’ roll tune. I can hear the influence of cats like Chuck Berry, Keith Richards, and maybe even a little Jimmy Vaughan on this. This was a fun track to play guitar and sing. It comes along in the story right when we needed a shift in tempo and groove.” — Tommy Castro
