Free Music Review: Never Give Up The Blues!
Hit: 5 Stars
Listening to this album, you can't help but wonder what kind of magic potion Eric took to rejuvenate himself. This is easily Eric's best studio album in many years. Tony Braunagel's production is superb and the musicians really cook. This recording has so many highlights that it's hard just to pick out a few. Starting out with Soul of a Man, you are immediately pulled into the mix with conga and some snaky slide guitar as Eric hearkens back to his blues roots. Kingsize Jones uses a combination of funky guitar, sax, and double entendres to hit us where it counts - this should be a great one for concerts. Red Cross Store features a primitive sounding guitar and rocking drums while Como Se Llama Mama returns to the Latin influence of Eric's Spill the Wine days. GTO begins with Eric's vocals joined later by some very sophisticated piano blues. Eric breathes life into the old Blues chestnut Forty Four with a version accompanied by some hot harmonica. Eric really hits the mark with Slow Moving Train and I'm telling you that, as Mark Anthony says in Julius Caesar, "if you have tears, prepare to shed them now." This is one of Eric's most moving vocals, ever. Don't Ever Let Nobody Drag Your Spirit Down combines the earthy sounds of brushes, acoustic guitar, and organ while I Don't Mind is reminiscent of Jimi Hendrix's Little Wing. The album ends with a bang with Eric and company rocking out to a boogie number entitled Circuit Rider that's very much in the spirit of John Lee Hooker. Eric Burdon has obviously found his muse once again and this album is the result. If you have ever loved the music of Eric Burdon, do yourself a favor and buy Soul of a Man. In my honest opinion, this is the Blues album of the year!
Soul of a Man Poster
There are few musicians the world over that the listener instantly recognizes with eyes closed. This phenomenon is generally referred to as charisma and is something you can neither buy nor learn; either you?ve got it or you don?t. There is certainly no doubt that Eric Burden posses such. For over forty years he has been gracing the world with his fascinating voice and his infallible feel for authentic blues-rock. Burdon?s latest studio album, Soul Of A Man, a 14 track recording at the interface of Rock, Blues, Folk and Gospel, proves the old credo of ?it?s the singer, not the song?, is still relevant in 2005. Soul Of A Man exposes an extremely lively, contemporary and hungry musician in the living legend that is Eric Burdon.Hard Rock & Metal Music CDs
