The collection DEVIL'S BEST FRIEND brings together some of the greatest tracks by two of the most influential blues innovators of the late 1920s, Charley Patton and Blind Lemon Jefferson. Eight cuts apiece are on offer here from each blues icon. Patton's haunted Delta blues sound inspired Robert Johnson and countless others, while the work of Jefferson helped define the early Texas blues style. Those who only want to dip a tentative toe into the catalogs of both men will be well served by this compact-but-incisive collection. Devil's Best Friend Music Devil's Best Friend Review

| | J J Cale Naturally CD (1971)
Devil's Best Friend
$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 roots music, concocting a mixture of country, blues, and boogie that is full of downhome goodness while it drips with cool.
Cale's version of "After Midnight" is here, as is his loping "Call Me the Breeze" (later covered by Lynyrd Skynyrd), and the minimal blues "Crazy Mama" (a radio hit for Cale). The music is deceptively tricky--the surface textures pull you in like a porch swing, but the interlocking rhythmic base is full of subtle tugs and pulls that are far from standard-issue slow boogie. A sterling cast of players backs Cale, adding warm tones and light, in-the-cut rhythms. NATURALLY is a perfect introduction to the work of this influential cult figure.
Personnel: J.J. Cale (vocals, guitar, piano, drums); J.J. Cale; Dianne ...
| | Joanne Shaw Taylor White Sugar CD (2009)
Devil's Best Friend
$12.89
She's already being called "the new face of the blues" by the press in her native Britain, but her debut album is the first opportunity most Americans will have to hear Joanne Shaw Taylor's sharp, fiery take on blues-based rock. Opening with the dark and sultry "Going Home," Taylor makes her intentions clear from the very beginning: her sound is raw, funky, and soulful, and she's as likely to reference Jimi Hendrix's R&B-inflected blues-rock as Stevie Ray Vaughan's rock-inflected blues. She's also unwilling to be hemmed in: notice the gorgeous guitar intro on "Just Another Word," and the way that the song goes well outside the lines of traditional blues structure without erasing them. Also notice the especially Hendrix-y "Kiss the Ground Goodbye," the lovely instrumental title track, ...
