R.L. Burnside -
Burnside On Burnside
£10.99
Like jazz, blues music has faced a problem of attrition, with its major names dying off & younger artists having trouble establishing themselves at anything like an equal level of recognition. One way out of this dilemma has been the discovery of new-old bluesmen, musicians who have reached an advanced age without becoming stars, who can now be trotted out as performers in the tradition of the lost heroes. Of course, the practice of discovering or rediscovering old bluesmen dates back at least ...

First Recordings
£10.99
At the time these tracks were cut, 1967 & 1968, R.L. Burnside was working on a plantation in Coldwater, MS, cutting silage. Folklorist George Mitchell was on a mission to record unknown blues singers down South. Mitchell heard about Burnside & paid him a visit, asking if he could record him. That night Mitchell returned to Burnsides place with a case of beer & some whiskey. Ten months later, Burnside had his first release. While these 14 tracks didnt jump start Burnsides career, they ar ...

R.L. Burnside - Wish I
Was In Heaven Sitt
£12.49
Like jazz, the blues has its share of late bloomers -- artists who didnt start recording or didnt become well-known until they were well into their 50s or 60s. R.L. Burnside is very much a late bloomer; the Mississippi bluesman was born in 1926, but it wasnt until the 1990s that he started to enjoy the publicity he deserved. Recorded in 2000, Wish I Was in Heaven Sitting Down finds the veteran singer continuing to be fairly unpredictable at 73. Essentially, this CD falls into the Mississippi ...

Ra Ra Riot - Rhumb
Line
£4.99
Although Ra Ra Riot began generating a buzz in New York City at the same time as Vampire Weekend, their ascent from Manhattans underground to a major-labels roster wasnt nearly as meteoric. Drummer John Pike died in June 2007, putting a temporary halt to Riots momentum, & the bands long-awaited debut didnt receive the same rush-release treatment awarded to other hipster hitmakers. The Rhumb Line arrives eight months after Vampire Weekends debut, a delay that actually serves the band wel ...

R.L. Burnside - Too Bad Jim

Too Bad Jim is cut from the same cloth as its predecessor, Bad Luck City. It features R.L. Burnside fronting a small juke joint combo, tearing through some greasy blues. However, Too Bad Jim is the better album, simply from a performance standpoint. Burnside sounds more relaxed and the band steps back from the spotlight slightly, letting the guitarist burn brightly on his own, showcasing his deep blues roots.
