The sound is a little old-fashioned, but the playing remains of interest. Not as flamboyant as many of the modern players - just good, solid blues that is consistently entertaining. A classic.
May 25, 2008Most blues fans know that T-Bone was the man. He influenced virtually every blues, jazz, and rock guitar player that came after him, wrote some timeless classics, and had a wonderful, smooth voice. This album consists largely of re-recordings of some of T-Bone's best songs, but don't let this discourage you, because even if you have the sublime originals, this disc is worth every penny and more... and not just for the spectacular tracks unique to the album. His remakes of his own classics are executed with stunning grace and skill. As another reviewer noted, some of these versions are actually the definitive versions, such as "Papa Ain't Salty." The instrumental "two bones and a pick" is a breathtaking duel between three masters, who T-bone, at the very least, gives a heck of a run for their money. Once again, if you have the original captitol/imperial recordings, but don't have this, then your T-bone collection is lacking... this is absolutely essential!
March 19, 2008My favorite single T-Bone disc. Listen and learn how lead guitar came to be. Incredible groove that never grows old. If I was stranded on an island with 10 CDs this would be one.
