More Southern Rock Hits album
 $11.89   
BY A THREAD is Gov't Mule's first studio album since HIGH & MIGHTY was issued in 2006. Since that time, bassist Andy Hess has been replaced by Jorgen Carlsson, though Hess appears on two tracks at the end of the album. Carlsson's playing style is much more aggressive than Hess', and is therefore closer - in spirit anyway - to Gov't Mule's original bassist, the late Allen Woody, though he possesses an adventurous sense of time and is harmonically more colorful than either Woody or Hess. Carlsson and drummer Matt Abst are a solid match, since Abst is a drummer used to shifting time signatures and allowing the unexpected in while still driving a band. The band's keyboardist and rhythm guitarist, Danny Louis, is a shape-shifter, playing to whatever is needed in a given track. His manner of coloring sounds inside and around a particular tune's framework is a large part of what makes Gov't Mule's sound so fresh here - despite the fact that they don't stray far from what they do best. Warren Haynes and his guitar are, as usual, front and center, his guitar ...

Dishwalla's debut album features alternative pop-rock with a hint of soul, and it's distinguished by powerful melodies and edgy guitars. "Explode" is a nice dichotomy of '80s pop and rough guitar noise, creating a tension characteristic of Dishwalla's music. The band often uses contrasting musical styles in the same song to keep things interesting.
"Counting Blue Cars" catches the listener's attention with the line, "Tell me all your thoughts on God/I'd really like to meet her," addressing religion from an appealingly innocent perspective. Kitschy, pop-culture references lend a retro appeal to both "Charlie Brown's Parents," which is about ...

This collaboration between soul singer Frankie Lee and multi-instrumentalist bluesman Dan Treanor definitely utilizes some African elements, but the title might be an exaggeration. At heart it's very much a straightforward (and excellent) blues record. Of course, the blues does have its roots in African music, but they're not as widely explored as they might be. "African Wind" comes closest, with kalimba (and Lee doing his best Taj Mahal imitation), and "Cane Flute Soul" brings in fife and drum -- again, originally from West Africa, but really more familiar from Mississippi hill country. "The Griot" pays tribute to the African historian storyteller and historian, but with very American style. That said, Treanor does use ngoni and khalam (although it's hard to hear the former). But don't come looking for the kind of African-American connection you'll find in, say Ali Farka Toure; it's not there and doesn't pretend to be. In spite of Treanor's instrumental abilities, it's Lee who's the star of the show here, with a big, broad voice that's perfectly at home in the blues, whether on the acoustic "Tell Me Mama" or the fast shuffle of "Who's Playing Who." He's a talent who deserves much broader exposure, and if there's any justice, he'll get it from this. ~ Chris Nickson
How's this for something totally original - take one veteran blues artist (Dan Treanor) who hand makes African string instruments, add one of the top soul singers around (Frankie Lee), back them up by a top notch blues band... and...well, African Wind is the result.This exciting take on the blues is a collaboration between Dan Treanor from Colorado and Soul singer Frankie Lee from California. Frankie belongs with the ranks of O.V. Wright, Otis Redding, Little Johnny Taylor, and Bobby Bland.Frankie originally worked as a featured vocalist in the Ike and Tina Turner Revue. Then, in 1963 Frankie recorded for Don Robey, the legendary owner of the Duke-Peacock label. He later worked with Albert Collins and then with his cousin, Johnny "Guitar" Watson. Frankie has recorded for many labels including Hightone, Blind Pig, and Flying Fish.Dan has been playing the blues for over thirty five years. He is a Hohner Harmonica endorsee and is considered one of the top blues harp players in the world. Dan has played on over one hundred albums, Cds and movie sound tracks."Frankie Lee is a tremendous roots performer, with a galvanizing ...
