Best Of Jimmy Withersoon album
 $8.15    
NATURALLY has stood up over the years as a perfect debut. When released in 1971, it introduced J.J. Cale's rootsy, laid back grooves to excellent effect, and in the decades since, this album and its follow-up, REALLY, have remained classics of mellow '70s country-rock. Riding on the success and easy blues feel of Eric Clapton's cover of Cale's "After Midnight," NATURALLY goes even deeper into ...

"You Can't Lose What You Ain't Never Had" and "The Same Thing" did not appear on the original version of FOLK SINGER. They were recorded at a separate session in April 1964, three months after FOLK SINGER was released.
The title and cover photo of this 1963 recording were an attempt to cash in on the burgeoning American folk revival, but this is pure acoustic blues. Muddy began his career as a Robert Johnson-style ...

Best Of Jimmy Withersoon music CDs
$14.05
Reverend Blind Gary Davis really wasn't a blues player, and although many of his advocates like to call what he played "holy blues," he seldom used the form, and when he did, it was in the guise of an evangelistic street performer who needed something secular to occasionally hold a crowd. What he was, as these early 78s show, was a skilled, and at times breath-taking, guitar player with a strict fundamentalist approach to spiritual matters, making him, literally, a guitarist for God. These are his earliest recordings, most of them recorded in New York in 1935 for ARC Records (Blind Boy Fuller also made his recording debut at these sessions), when he was using a metal-bodied National resonator guitar, and the rest from the mid- to late- '40s, when he was playing a standard acoustic. There are only a couple of blues pieces here (including the stately "I'm Throwing Up My Hands," which opens the sequence), with most of the sides being skilled re-workings of church hymns and folk pieces. While it is tempting to call this material "gospel-blues," and that is an accurate term to some degree, the truth is that these generally aren't blues progressions at all, and it might help to think of Davis' guitar work as an attempt to fill in where a piano or organ might normally be. Whatever you call it, Davis could play, and his easy dexterity on guitar is everywhere evident here. Highlights include a heartfelt version of Georgia Tom Dorsey's "Lord, Stand By Me," the hoarse and moving "You Can Go Home," the guest vocal by Bull City Red (aka George "Bull City Red" Washington) on "I Saw the Light," and the simply bizarre mid- '40s instrumental called "Civil War March," which sounds like the possible source for much of John Fahey's unique acoustic guitar vision. Originally issued on CD by Document Records in 1991, these tracks were re-mastered and released again with slightly better sound by Document in 2004. ~ Steve Leggett
Bull City Red, who played with the Reverend Gary Davis at various times, turns up on vocals for "I Saw the Light," but the rest of 1935-1949 is all Davis' show. Given the quality of what is here; the quality and inventiveness of the playing alone is astonishing, a youthful version of the technique that was still dazzling players 30 years later after Davis' rediscovery. Some of the tracks are a little noisy but generally the quality is better than decent for blues of this vintage, and it's startling to hear the 1930s versions of numbers like "Twelve Gates to the City," which Davis was still performing better than anyone else in the mid-'60s. On "You Can Go Home," he really does get the guitar to sound like an orchestra, rippling through melodic and harmonic flourishes with the kind of assurance that would have made many a would-be bluesman ...
