It's perfect in vocals, lyrics, emotion, slide guitar, and everything in between. has an absolutely perfect blues voice. But my very favorite is Walkin' Blues. The slide guitar is one of my favorite sounds on earth and they play it to perfection throughout the album.
I'm a young guy and just scratching the service on blues legends like R.L. I can't get enough of that song.The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because a couple of songs are repetitious of each other and don't stand out to me.I would give this album a 4.5 stars but it won't let me. It's the total package. Burnside.
My favorite songs are Shake Em' on Down, Rollin' and Tumblin', Goin' Down South, Skinny Women (which is covered by a great band named the The Black Keys they call their version "Busted"), and Bad Luck and Trouble. This is the first CD of his I've bought and I'm extremely happy that I purchased it.R.L. His guitar playing along with Kenny Brown is incredible.
Buy it and play it loud.My favourite blues album in my collection. Powerfull, driving and gets under your skin.
I wish I could compare it to something, but ain't nothin' to compare it to. It don't get no better than this. Burnside's best.
subtly different lyrics. Skinny woman though. I think. Black keys came out first though. anyone heard busted by the black keys. Same song.
This is what it's all about. A "must buy" for the down home blues lover. This cat is good. Mesmerizing beat and tempo, he has the blues in his voice and his soul.
