Free Music Notes for Too Hot for Snakes
Free Music Review: Swaying to the Blues
Hit: 5 Stars
If the only cut of significance was "Sway," the 2-CD set would be essential for anyone who wants to hear the true art of playing the electric guitar; Mick Taylor takes no prisoners in this sizzling rendition from his classic work with the Rolling Stones.
But the remaining 24 cuts solidly show Taylor's underrated collaboration with Carla Olson, on stage and in the studio. The special gem is the reissue of a live album that was recorded in March 1990 from the Roxy Theatre, which was originally released under several different titles.
The second disc is studio recordings from a number of mostly out-of-print/rare albums. This is a sweeping exploration that covers nearly 20 years of material and the duo's special passion for the blues.
Too Hot for Snakes Poster
Pair all-time great blues-rock guitarist Mick Taylor with roots-rock chanteuse Carla Olson, throw in band members like Ian McLagan, Barry Goldberg and harmonica whiz John Luke Logan, and you had one hot combo, too hot, dare we say, for snakes! This deluxe reissue expands their 1990 live at the Roxy album with a number of tracks from Carla's various studio albums, all of 'em featuring Mick and all of 'em long out-of-print. We even unearthed an unreleased cut, an alternate version of 'Winter' that's over twice as long as the Rolling Stones' version on 'Goat s Head Soup' with much Mick guitar solo magic, and the rare, Japan-only track 'You Gotta Move' to up the temperature. And Stones fans wait 'til you hear the 7- minute version of 'Sway' (the original on Sticky Fingers faded out at 3:50 just when Mick was taking off)!Country Music CDs
