Blues The Whole Blues & Nothing But The Blues
Description
David Bromberg, Godfather of Americana, musician’s
musician, decorated multi-instrumentalist, and acclaimed singer-songwriter,
hits a milestone with his debut Red House Records release The Blues, The Whole
Blues and Nothing But The Blues. Produced by three-time Grammy winner Larry
Campbell, it’s a wonderfully curated selection of deep cuts from the blues
genre, in addition to luminous originals and traditional material given the
Bromberg treatment. David found his inspiration for the album when he heard
Willie Nelson repeat a quote from Texas fiddler Johnny Gimble: “There’s only
two kinds of music – the Star-Spangled Banner and the Blues.” Propelled by
Bromberg’s unparalleled playing and gift for interpretation, a crack band and
Campbell’s tasteful horn arrangements, the album takes us to electrifying
heights as well as intimate acoustic moments on his arrangements of songs by
Robert Johnson, Bobby Charles, George “Little Hat” Jones, Ray Charles, and
Sonny Boy Williamson and others. David puts his unmistakable stamp on these
chestnuts, then digs deep into the historical archives for such mysterious
musical nuggets as “How Come My Dog Don’t Bark When You Come ‘Round?” and “900
Miles,” an old country song imagined as if Howling’ Wolf were to play it.
Bromberg may be singing the blues, but this is anything but a downer as he
proves that he’s still as entertaining, brilliant and witty as when his career
began in 1971. Review an American music icon –Mac Dr John Rebbenack The
