| What's Wrong With You CD (2000)
Robert Belfour songs. This is Robert Belfour's debut, recorded when he was 59. Born and raised in northern Mississippi, Belfour's acoustic blues are confident and vivid, drawing on influences from the southern delta area of his state. After a move to Memphis and several decades spent working in the construction business, he began performing and touring earnestly in the mid '90s.
Besides his fluid fingerpicking style and strummed guitar playing, he's an impassioned singer and strong writer. These nine songs could have come from just about any decade in the 20th Century, from the '20s onward. Recorded with straightforward simplicity, this set's sound is rich and warm in detail. The album sounds timeless without being museum-bound reverent. Robert Belfour may be part of a tradition, but he's also brought Delta Blues forward with marvelous style and grace.

In stark contrast to his labelmates, Belfour strictly plays acoustic blues, but he plays them with the same dark, trancelike feel of Junior Kimbrough, haunting spookiness of Fred McDowell, rhythmic intensity of John Lee Hooker, and sprawling drawl of Lightnin' Hopkins. Ted Gainey aids Belfour on a drum kit. While the first album was all of a piece, and everything but the vocal seemed to be recorded at the same level (and even then, Belfour couldn't always be ... |
