Still the best-selling blues cd we carry - 12 years later! We recommend this to everybody who comes in the store - and you ain't no different! Buy this! |

The one that made RL a star. The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion backs him up here on a raw, unbridled blues…well, "explosion", as it were. One of the few occasions where artists of different ilks combine to make something great and are forever changed for the better because of it. |
|
|
|
|
|
All Music Guide sez: While it's not quite as relentlessly exciting as A Ass Pocket of Whiskey, primarily because the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion isn't along to provide support, Mr. Wizard is another set of blistering electric blues from R.L. Burnside, highlighted by his stomping guitar, powerful voice and cheerfully vulgar lyrics. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Blues "purists" slag this effort for it's use of sampling ( Come On In is a collaboration with Beck mixmaster Tom Rothrock and Alec Empire of Digital Hardcore), but don't let that scare you off! Once ya get past the labels, this is just a great record! |
|
|
|
|
| Wish I Was in Heaven Sitting Down |
|
|
| Another installment in the Burnside "sampling" period. This disc employs ample use of hip-hop beats and even scratching, coupled with cool samples of Burnside's vocals and guitar. This disc is awesome from the git-go: Hard Time Killing Floor Blues is just a badass tune, and it gets better from there! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Recorded on a West Coast tour in 2001, which finds Burnside backed only by second guitarist Kenny Brown and drummer Cedric Burnside, his grandson. Great, stripped down versions of his classics including Shake 'Em On Down, Miss Maybelle, Jumper on the Line and Goin' Down South to name a few. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| From All Music Guide : A Bothered Mind is perhaps the most ideally representative of all of Burnside's albums, ranging from solo acoustic tracks to crunching boogie struts, all with a light dose of hip-hop and enough scratching and looping effects to make this clearly an album from the 21st century. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| This incredible set was RL's first recorded output with an electric guitar - as well as with a band. Dr. David Evans recorded this juke blues masterpiece at Memphis State in 1979-80. If for no other reason, buy this for Bad Luck City , arguably RL's best number - but who wants to argue? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| From All Music Guide : At the time these tracks were cut, 1967 and 1968, R.L. Burnside was working on a plantation in Coldwater, MS, cutting silage. Folklorist George Mitchell was on a mission to record unknown blues singers down South. Mitchell heard about Burnside and paid him a visit, asking if he could record him. That night Mitchell returned to Burnside's place with a case of beer and some whiskey. Ten months later, Burnside had his first release. While these 14 tracks didn't jump start Burnside's career, they are stark, organic, and timeless, just Burnside and his acoustic guitar running down mainly traditional material that he arranged. This is an absolute treasure for Burnside aficionados and casual blues listeners alike. |

|
| Mississippi Hill Country Blues |
|
|
| From All Music Guide : It's a pleasure to hear R.L. Burnside's early acoustic blues played the way he learned them in the hill country of Northern Mississippi. Three of these tracks date from 1967 and were recorded in Coldwater, MS by folklorist George Mitchell, while the remaining 16 were recorded in the early '80s by Swingmaster operator Leo Bruin in Groningen, Netherlands. This is Burnside playing solo (and mainly) acoustic country blues with the only addition to his guitar and voice being the harmonica of Red Ramsey on "Rolling and Tumbling." While you can't go wrong with the purchase of any Burnside recording, these Swingmaster sessions portray a natural relaxed unaccompanied Burnside. Recorded long before the mid-'90s, Fat Possum releases would find him playing in an electric band with his son and son-in-law and occasionally experimenting with sampling and indie rock leanings. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| From All Music Guide : These recordings were made in 1969 when blues musician Big Joe Williams led a carload of Adelphi Records filmmakers and sound engineers on a tour through the blues country from Chicago south to Mississippi. Burnside was one of the highlights of the trip, and the crew ended up setting up camp near his home for some time to record. My Black Name A-Ringin' presents Burnside in a stripped-down, acoustic form and shows his native north hill country style as well as some early influences. Each song shows off a different facet of his style: "Goin' Down South" is a hypnotic drone with short, repetitive rhythmic sections; "Two Trains Runnin'" features more of a traditional Delta style with its deep, sad harmonica; and "My Black Name A-Ringin'" shows what Burnside could do with a traditional song dating as far back as slavery. Overall, this album presents an interesting prequel to Burnside's recordings with Fat Possum Records and his experimentalism in the 1990s. |

| Great mid-90's electro-pop from Alicja Trout, Shelby Bryant, and Brad Pounders… |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| 7 song ep. Long awaited follow-up! Hard to categorize, but I'll try. Sonic Youth meets Pavement meets Echo and the Bunnymen? I can't do this… |

| 6-song ep. Really nice chilled-out "modern" folk with a great singer. Next big thing out of Memphis? Maybe… |
|
|
|
|

|
|
| Great songs and singing here. Best parts of Vic Chestnutt and Silver Jews mixed together. Really good stuff. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Debut from one of Memphis' best new singer-songwriters. Equal parts country and folk with a great raspy delivery reminiscent of Tom Waits and Vic Chestnutt. |

Memphis Music CD
|
|
Secret
Service - The Service Is Spectacular
Debut from this latest Memphis supergroup. Members include Justice
Naczycz, Steve Selvidge, Mark Stuart, and John Argroves. This rocks
hard. Pop punk hooks ala M.O.T.O. or the Subteens. CD $12.99 |

Impala
- Night Full Of Sirens: Anthology '93-'97 - CD
Arguably one of the best bands in Memphis during the 90's. The shows
these guys put on at Barrister's were the stuff of legends. This
cd is overflowing with 30 tracks of sleazy-instro bliss. You name
the style: surf, r&b, garage, lounge, country & western
- it's on here and it's good! And since all their Crypt releases
are out-of-print, this is your only chance left. Highly Recommended
- $12.99

Cory
Branan - 12 Songs
Cory stretches out on this looong awaited 2nd release. Fans will
still get the usual pretty alt-country songs - but there's some
nice rockers and darned if there ain't a funk-soul number! Check
out "Mohammed Ali (And Me)." The cast of characters on
this puppy reads like a Who's Who of Memphis: Jody Stephens, Jim
Spake, Steve Selvidge, Ben Nichols, Roy Berry, just to name a few!
Great stuff! CD $12.99

The
Hook-Up!!! - Simmer to a Boil: 2 Dozen Soul Cookers - CD
One of our resident mixologists (not to mention of of Memphis' hottest
spinners) comes across with an amazing batch of super-rare soul 45s.
These tracks are sequenced slow-to-fast (simmer to a boil, get it?).
Get it! Just $7.99! |
