This album contains some of the noisiest and most unapologetically down-home blues recorded in the post-war era. Hezekiah Early and Elmo Williams are both semi-professional musicians, but both play and sing as if their life depended on it, with force and power. The blues this duo plays are decidedly modern (even post-modern), and would appeal to any fan of Sonic Youth's white noise rock and Captain Beefheart's Dadaesque R&B. Williams' guitar on "Hoopin' and Hollern'" sounds like it was played through a completely fired amp, and Early's harp on "Insane Instrumental" sounds like a trucker grinding gears. But that doesn't mean the duo can't conjure up some soul. William's gospel-ish "Let It All Go" closes the album. ~ John Duffy

Recorded at Desert Plantion, Pickneyville, Mississippi; Money Shot, Oxford, Mississippi; Manning Tractor Shed, Waterproof, Louisiana.

Personnel: Elmo Williams (vocals, guitar); Hezekiah Early (vocals, harp, drums); Bob Manning (guitar).

Audio Mixer: Bruce Watson .

Recording information: Desert Plantation, Pickneyville, MS (1997); Manning Tractor Shed, Waterproof (1997); Money Shot, Oxford, MS (1997).

Photographer: Matthew Johnson.

CMJ (1/11/99, p.9) - "...For pure feeling it's hard to beat Williams's overdriven guitar and his soulful, pathos filled holler. Coupled with Early's simultaneously played harp and drums redux, the effect is downright timeless..."

Virginia Rodrigues Sol Negro CD  (1997)

Takes One To Know One CD music
CD $13.85  Audio Samples
Arising from obscurity, 33-year-old Virginia Rodrigues, who grew up outside of Salvador, Brazil, was introduced to the recording world by Brazil's popular singer Caetano Veloso. Sol Negro is an incredible album that mixes the vocal talents of Rodrigues and percussive rhythms of her native Brazil. To describe this recording as heavenly or hymn-like wouldn't be too far-fetched; the album's rhythms work in tandem to cradle Rodrigues' celestial voice. On the a cappella track "Verônica," she demonstrates her youthful, almost childlike vocals. With just as much ease as she sings a cappella, she ...

Cubanismo Reencarnacion CD  (1998)

Takes One To Know One music CDs
CD $10.59  Audio Samples
As the title suggests, Cubanismo's third album is a reincarnation of sorts, with several new band members and an even greater variety of musical stylings explored. One thing that hasn't changed is the almost tangible intensity and excitement that Jesus Alemany and company bring to every song, whether a traditional Cuban number originally performed a half century ago or a new composition. This album is slightly more subdued than the previous two, but is excellent nonetheless. While Malembe is recommended ...

Booker T & The MG's Time Is Tight CDs  (1998)

Takes One To Know One songs
CD $28.69  5 stars Audio Samples
Recorded between 1962 and 1993. Includes liner notes by Bill Belmont and Rob Bowman. Even though the average pop fan only knows Booker T and the MGs for their biggest Top 40 hit under their own name, the supremely funky instrumental "Green Onions," they were THE backing band of the '60s. Nearly every one of the classic Stax/Volt singles of this era--by Sam and Dave, Otis Redding and a seemingly endless list of others--features organist Booker T. Jones, bassist Donald "Duck" Dunn, superlative guitarist Steve Cropper and powerhouse drummer Al Jackson Jr. TIME IS TIGHT collects most of the MGs' singles, plus unreleased goodies and live tracks; this three-disc set is the bedrock of Memphis soul. Booker T and the MGs were able to make "Ode To Billy Joe" and "Never My Love" sound ...

Along with labelmate Junior Kimbrough, Burnside can be credited with bringing back real, gutbucket blues to a public numbed by the Kenny Wayne Sheperds of the world. His raw, electric style fuses Chicago and Delta blues into an arresting, often hypnotic swirl. COME ON IN represents a summit between Burnside's traditionalism and the high-tech ...

CD $17.49  Audio Samples
As Marshall Wyatt's thorough liner notes explain in the accompanying 32-page booklet, the violin had a more prominent role in early blues than has often been supposed. Violins were far more apt to be played than guitars in the 19th century, and even when the blues began to be recorded in the 1920s, violins were still often used, although they weren't as apt to be featured on disc as the guitar and other instruments were. This 24-track compilation (with only one cut dating ...
