Golden State Blues
 $13.65  
LOOKIN 'FOR TROUBLE was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Traditional Blues Album.
Though he's best known as the frontman for the blues-rocking Fabulous Thunderbirds, singer/harmonica player Kim Wilson has quietly carved out a career for himself as one of the most authentic-sounding blues players of the 21st century. Wilson is obviously well-schooled in the blues, and dips into the catalog of Chicago blues godfather Willie Dixon ...
| | Ronnie Earl Now My Soul CD (2004) (Import) Canada
Golden State Blues
$15.39  
Guitarist Ronnie Earl's realization that you don't need a vocalist to sing the blues freed him up to roam across the vernacular music landscape, dipping into jazz, gospel, and soul, and has made him one of the most innovative and interesting musicians working in contemporary blues. It's hardly a radical step, since scores of jazz musicians have been mining the blues for 80 years without vocalists, and in Earl's case it was a natural shift -- maybe even an obvious one given that he has often cited John Coltrane as a predominant influence. On Now My Soul, his second release from Stony Plain Records, Earl moves a bit back to neutral ground on the vocal issue, with roughly half the tracks featuring singing from either Kim Wilson ...

| | Apse Spirit CD (2006) Reissue
Golden State Blues
$13.45
Hovering in the shadows comes Apse's Spirit, a mesmerizing album where the shrouded world of Gothic gloom meets the outer stratosphere of space rock. Although laced with vocals and haunted by moody melodies, the 11 tracks within are less songs than instrumentals interconnected by their melodies, rhythms, and thick atmospheres. It's an unusual set, and a subtle one, making it difficult to hang on a descriptive peg, but for starters imagine Dark Side of the Moon era Pink Floyd covering Joy Division (but nothing as accessible as "Love Can Tear Us Apart"). Toss Adam & the Ants rolling rhythms into the mix, add dollops of western guitar, turn on a dry ice machine, and stir thoroughly. The atmospheres are dense and intense, the melodies moody, the rhythms variable, sliding between the Ants' tribalism, doom dance, martial marches and, in the case of "Ark," Latin beats. They are the driving force of each piece, their shifts heralding a change in mood and focus, over which the melodies splay. The latter are handed off between guitar and keyboard, the former particularly evocative, the latter more versatile, bringing forth classical elements, cathedral auras, and genre bending sounds. Read what you will into the music within, this reviewer sensed an epic tale of the arrival of Europeans in the New World, starting with the Vikings sailing down "From the North" to discover a land populated by "Legions" of indigenous peoples. From the south, the "Shade of the Moor" spread out from the Caribbean into the Americas. Colonies fail, the natives are decimated by disease and war, but the Europeans keep coming, both communities' "Spirit"s haunting the land to this day. However one chooses to interpret the set, its mood and music casts an unbreakable spell, leaving the listener haunted by the images evoked and the atmospheres conjured up. ~ Jo-Ann Greene
This is the debut release by Cape Cod's Apse, originally released on Acuarela Discos in 2006. In architecture, the apse is a semicircular recess covered by a hemispherical vault, most often referenced in the context of Christian churches. It is a piece of construction that denotes an altar, a sanctuary. Spirit aspires to a similar state. Less an album than one long song cut into pieces, its one hour duration consists of patterns and colors and shapes. The closest thing to a "single" is the dramatic 7-minute composition "Legions," a particularly concentrated example of the group's shimmering melodies and otherworldly rhythmic spells. Throughout ...
