Originally released on the French record label Black and Blue, Evidence's re-issue of 1973's JUST GOT LUCKY showcases the always impressive--and widely varied--roots music wizardry of Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown. This unclassifiable guitar maverick is as likely to strike up a spicy zydeco as he is a steamy down-tempo blues. JUST GOT LUCKY kicks things off with versions of three of Brown's Peacock tunes from the '50s in the blues/swing mold. These include the title track and "Sad Hour," on which Brown's guitar skill is matched by the cool ivory tickling of Jay McShann.
Four rollicking versions of well-known Louis Jordan numbers show the ensemble at ease in the jump blues style, as does a sizzling version of Bill Doggett's "Honey Boy," with Brown's six-string ministrations spotlighted throughout. With a couple of exceptions, the Gate's guitar approach is mellower and more nuanced than the brash, rock-inflected sound of his '50s sides, as can be heard on the relaxed, jazzy "It's Mean," which features support from bassist Milt Hinton and J.C. Heard. Here, as always, Brown's conversational singing, impressive multi-instrumentalism (check out the fiddle solo on "Someday"), and deep, bluesy feeling, tie the whole enterprise together.
Recorded in 1973 and 1977 in France. Includes liner notes by Bill Dahl.

Purchase Just Got Lucky CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Paul Butterfield Blues Band CD (1965)
Just Got Lucky album
 $6.19   
The '60s Blues Revival begins here. Calling this album influential is an understatement akin to calling the Grand Canyon a rut; suffice to say that an entire generation of musicians (mostly young and white) heard this and had their lives changed forever. In fact, for at least a year after the album's release in 1965, it was impossible to walk down the hall of any college dorm in America without hearing ...
| | VH1 Presents The Corrs Live In Dublin CD (2002)
Just Got Lucky CD music
$6.39  
This audio document of The Corrs' Dublin homecoming concert has pretty much everything fans of Irish pop could wish for, including an appearance from Bono in his earthly incarnation, fresh from an audience with President George W. Bush. It's to the band's credit that the charismatic singer fails to steal the show, despite creditable efforts via an anthemized version of Ryan Adams' beautifully downtempo "When the Stars Go Blue," and a great, leering rendition of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra's "Summer Wine."
Somewhat more mysteriously, Rolling Stone Ron Wood also turns up on what sounds dangerously close ...
| | Drive-By Truckers Southern Rock Opera CDs (2001) Digipak
Just Got Lucky music CDs
$11.99  
A sprawling two-disc set, the Drive-By Truckers' SOUTHERN ROCK OPERA is a cracked masterpiece that's enjoyable on several different levels. Hipsters might enjoy the giggly premise of a two-disc set devoted to a slightly altered retelling of the rise and fall of 1970s Southern rock icons Lynyrd Skynyrd. Progressive rock fans lamenting the modern era's relative lack of story-driven albums divided into "Act I" and "Act II" will latch onto SOUTHERN ROCK OPERA with the same passion with which they embraced ...
| | Marshall Tucker Band Where We All Belong CD (1974) Bonus Tracks; Remastered
Just Got Lucky songs
$10.69
Originally released on Capricorn Records (0145). Includes liner notes by Barry Alfonso.
Although it runs a little long, Where We All Belong captures the sound of The Marshall Tucker Band coming into its own. Half the tracks are new studio recordings, which are more focused than their previous releases; the other half is a harder-edged, jam-oriented live set. Taken together, they show that the band was progressing musically. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

| | Dredg Catch Without Arms CD (2005)
Just Got Lucky album
$8.49
Early on, critics often described Dredg as a metal group. However, the quartet has since matured into a hard-edged indie-rock ensemble that seeks diversity and refinement in its music. On CATCH WITHOUT ARMS, the band favors highly orchestrated parts, dense guitar riffs, and powerful drumming. Each song is based around memorable vocal hooks ...

| | Legend Of Sleepy John Estes CD (1962)
Just Got Lucky music CDs
$9.99
In the late '50s Sleepy John Estes wasn't nearly as visible as he had been before and during World War II -- in fact, he had become so obscure that some historians wondered if he had died. But the blues veteran was still very much alive, and in 1962 a 63-year-old Estes (some claimed he was 58 or 57) made an impressive comeback with The Legend of Sleepy John Estes. Produced by Delmark president Bob Koester on March 24, 1962, this historic acoustic session finds singer/guitarist Estes joined by Ed Wilkinson on bass, John "Knocky" Parker on piano, and long-time ally Hammie Nixon on harmonica. Legend ...
| | Kenny Burrell At The Five Spot Cafe CD (1959)
Just Got Lucky songs
$9.15
Kenny Burrell and Art Blakey played together infrequently during their careers, so this meeting of jazz minds is a welcome occasion. A rather short set issued here from club dates at the Five Spot Cafe in New York City must have meant there were other nights of recordings that did not make it for public consumption, or that Burrell simply sat in. No matter the configuration, this is come what may jazz that has no pressurized content, and a relaxed atmosphere allowing the music to organically breathe and come alive naturally. This loose but tight feeling comes to the fore right away on Dizzy Gillespie's "Birk's Works," a rather polite version as Burrell tosses out his discriminating versions of the melody. Incorrectly identified ...
