Knowledgeable fans of urban piano blues will undoubtedly raise an eyebrow at those recording dates, as Leroy Carr died in 1935. Although he gets top billing, Carr shares this 23-track disc with a relatively unknown blues pianist with the pre-PC sobriquet Black Boy Shine, a Houston-based bluesman.
Dodgy name aside, Shine is a more-than-adequate boogie-woogie player, a bit rougher than the more sophisticated Carr, but an exciting soloist with a nice rough tone. Listening to the two players in tandem like this, it's easy to see just how influential Carr's urban, sophisticated style of piano playing was throughout the '30s. Shine's "Dallas Woman Blues" and "Sugarland Woman Blues" swing with the easy grace of T-Bone Walker, but there's a sophistication here that would have been missing had the tracks been recorded a decade earlier.
Recorded between 1933 and 1937.
Feat.Black Boy
Personnel: Leroy Carr (vocals, piano); Black Boy Shine (vocals, piano); Josh White, Scrapper Blackwell (guitar).

Recorded between 1970 and 1980. Includes liner notes by John McDermott.
Digitally remastered by Suha Gur (Universal Music Group Studios).
Prior to Eric Clapton's pop- and MTV-driven mid-'80s work, he spent the '70s and early '80s playing languid, singer-songwriter soft rock evocative of J.J. Cale and Don Edwards. But Clapton always kept one foot in the blues of his youth. BLUES brings this material together in one place and throughout, Slowhand taps into an inner spirituality that does these blues standards well.
The first disc contains studio recordings that include tributes to many influences including Elmore James ("The Sky Is Crying") and Willie Dixon ("Meet Me [Down At the Bottom]"). Most impressive is a stripped-down version of Little Walter's "Mean Old World," in which Clapton and Duane Allman ...
| | Keb' Mo' Slow Down CD (1998) Enhanced CD
Unissued Test Pressings & Alternate Takes (1934-37) CD music
$7.59
SLOW DOWN is a Enhanced CD containing both a full audio program as well as multimedia computer files.
All tracks have been digitally mastered using HDCD technology.
SLOW DOWN won the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Blues Album.
Let's dispel a common misconception right off the bat; Keb Mo is not a blues singer. To call him one would be as limiting as calling Lyle Lovett a country singer. He's got his finger in too many musical pies to be tied down to one tradition. As SLOW DOWN makes plain, his songs are certainly bluesy, but like Taj Mahal, he takes the style an mingles it with so many others that a new paradigm is created.
Keb Mo's snappy, soulful acoustic guitar is the central element of most of the tunes here, but there's everything from funk to R&B to '70s-sounding rock-pop at work in these songs. As ...
