JOHNNY ADAMS

Think I will change the pace a little and move over to the soul side of the BLUES ....

This poor album then CD has been worn out over the years from constant playing, when in doubt or you can't figure out what mood you are in - START HERE .... mellow down easy ... YUP!!


Review
Although calling Johnny Adams a blues singer is far too confining, he's certainly among the finest to perform in that idiom. He's equally brilliant at slow or uptempo numbers, can effectively convey irony, heartache or triumph, and is a masterful storyteller. These ten blues numbers covered every emotional base, allowing Adams a chance to show his proficiency. With great support from an instrumental corps that included guitarists Walter "Wolfman" Washington and Duke Robillard, keyboardist Dr. John, and saxophonists Red Tyler and Foots Samuel, plus Ernie Gautreau on valve trombone, Adams didn't just cut a blues album, he made unforgettable blues statements.
