Free Music Review: Powerful blues!
Hit: 5 Stars
What did Bukka White have on his mind when he recorded this session ? A lot. But he managed to put it down into 12 tracks! (plus the first 2 from another session).
This was my first introduction to Bukka White, and also probably my first introduction to classic Blues. It all began with getting Iggy Pop's Nude and Rude, wherein he mentioned listening to Bukka White in his hotel room when he was approached with his 'best of' project. 'Bukka' just got stuck on me somehow and as destiny would have had it, I found this album dumped in the movie section of a store.
It would be another week before I listened to it. At first it sounded all weird, too profound and maybe a bit too earthy. But as I reached to 'Strange Place Blues' I could feel I'm officially hooked. This song had something too personal about it, it just made too much sense to me.... something felt different. Anothe song I'd talk about is 'Sleepy Man Blues' , which is such a powerful song, because it is so simple, it gets right into your head and refuses to leave! And I will omit saying anything about Fixin' to Die, because a lot has been written and said about it, my contribution wouldnt take away or give anything to it.
This album, is one of the most compelling sessions ever recorded. It cant be made to look cheap by clinically comparing it with other recordings of Bukka or any other bluesman.
If you have a knack for good music, then this album would do you good.
