Yet another collection of Brook Benton late '50s and early '60s hits. This is better-sounding than some prior anthologies, but still isn't really what the serious Benton fan desires. Those who want just a little Benton material will prefer this or one of the other greatest hits sets that came out in the '80s; others should seek out the Rhino anthology or Mercury deluxe package. ~ Ron Wynn Greatest Songs Review

Borrowed & Blue was selected as one of the TOP TEN CDS OF THE YEAR by two leading Massachusetts dailies: The Boston Globe and the Patriot Ledger.BOSTON GLOBE, Scott Alarick"Borrowed & Blue is the CD Les Sampou's fans always hoped she'd make. Armed only with her guitar, searing mezzo, and a Monday-morning-size case of the blues, she delivers a solo set of folk blues. She takes classics by Robert Johnson, Blind Blake, Mississippi John Hurt, and Bob Dylan, reinventing and reinvigorating them until they fit her style like a tight pair of jeans; and her own tunes crackle with modern sensibility."If you like blues sung by a woman and a guitar played by a woman like a man, you've got to get this CD. Les Sampou is self-taught. She says,"I used to woodshed for 5-6 hours a day just to be able to get over my stage fright that would make my hands seize up from nerves." She used to listen to records that ranged from Sarah Vaughn to Patsy Cline to the Talking Heads in order to learn how to sing and play. As a result of this varied repertoire of "teachers," Sampou's music is eclectic and hard to categorize. She is a musical chameleon, singing like the "old timers" when she presents her classic country blues renditions, and then switching her elastic vocals to include dramatic nuances in her rock originals, twang in her country sing a-longs and velvet in her folk ballads. The thread is the conviction she displays in her passionate delivery.Today, with her fourth album (visit www.LesSampou.com to listen to her other CDs) "Borrowed & Blue," Sampou re-visits her roots. Recorded live in the upstairs bedroom "studio" of songwriter J.P. Jones with a P.A.R.I.S. system, Les accompanys herself on her steel-string and slide guitars. The sound quality is outstanding--the guitar is big and rich and it's as if you're in the room with her. The performances are all top notch. Every nuance of every guitar bend and vocal dynamic is heard. And the repertoire is just great-- upbeat blues, slide guitar, ragtime, ballads. As Blues pundit Elijah Wald said, upon hearing Borrowed & Blue, "If this album doesn't make a lot of people sit up and listen--well, there is no justice in the world." Les Sampou got her start in Boston's Haymarket subway stop in 1985. Sampou remembers it as the "very first time I played in front of more than one person; I had terrific stage fright but knew this was going to be my path from now on." Over the next five to seven years, Les Sampou experimented with a few short-lived duos and trios, and played solo sets at a circuit of bars, performing cover songs from the seventies and eighties. It wasn't until in 1989, that she began writing and performing all of her own material and within a year Sampou was taking it on the road, ...
