Rise to the Grind (Audio CD)

Customer Review

Surely it is simply because I am currently fascinated total of the lumber-roots-rock-R & B combo Calvin Russell / Jim Dickinson to come as a like Garrett Lebeau at all relevant only close: maybe it's just only the so very hip, and with me so much reluctance exciting, Hütchen-, Hornbrillen- and Imam Beard Image - the hairdressers in the Glockenbachviertel district of Munich would totaaal begeiiiistert - presents itself with the Lebeau on the cover. That bodes in terms of musical Virilitäts expectation nothing really good. And let such an optical Ersteinduck not underestimate - He is definitely not a bad, the Lebeau, not the first impression ... but this is me definitely säuselig, too much the blues and playing on the Soul - Soul what? - Looking, yes rather squinting to remain all too often stuck in hinschleppender right uniformity.

Garrett Lebeau - what sounds like Canada or N'awlins, actually comes from Wyoming, has reportedly never before heard the music on the other - not Cale, not Green, no Scaggs, the pure natural wonder - and produced in Austin, TX, the residence of the alternative country, at least is the recording studio here. He tries to something that would have to come in this form of Memphis, but now probably has general validity Location: Southern Soul branded Dan Penn, Chips Moman, George Soulé, Arthur Alexander and .... see the above - and thus are we then but in N'awlins - branded Neville Brothers, particularly their cuddly Department Aaron with his fluttery phrasing - you'll forgive the expression - the Lebeau actually temporarily "inspired", but without the slightest whose vocal range or even falsetto heights be able to achieve.
Inspired by the comparisons of other reviewers, I prompt the Greens and brought out the Scaggs, the Cale I've paid the same, and I'm surprised that Lebeau said to have never heard of something. Especially if you can connect the "Memphis" from Scaggs 'directly' Rise To The Grind ", it surprised even how seamlessly it does - in sound, structure and voice. With the latter Lebeau looks like a younger version of the now-maturing but aged old master of pop-soul, but its inclusion staged far more with the underlying strength and verve of an old tiger.

But - no worse, the Lord Lebeau .... you wonder just inevitably what he could, when he could ?! When he switched from the cuddly puppy dog ​​to something really dangerous, ravenous. That this possibility in the background rumbling undercurrent hides, clarifies to some extent his electric guitar - he plays it himself Bonds be singing in a continuous invariant midrange position firmly and the songs remain largely in the subdued blues habit with B 3-Soul paint stuck. so protrude both the E-guitar solos, and Lebeau's rhythm work out in their little fiddly nature, as very individual sound and formative. The one and the other is stronger against the grain and produce more groove than anything the actually extremely profiled rhythm section consisting of JJ Johnson, drums, from the Tedeschi Trucks Band - aha, there peep - and Roscoe Beck, bass, ex Boz Scaggs - more aha! -, A reggae approach included medium magnificent self-written song about mediocre selbstgeschrienen song, so relaxed in front of him in a track. Fortunately, as always, excellent Red Young participates in the B 3 and the electric piano, which he otherwise served among others Janiva Magness. In addition to the guitar Lebeau's he is the one who pumps the radio in the somewhat flaccid Soul veins.

Of course, it speaks for the popularity ratings Lebeau's that he plays this wonderful, an unusual sound generating Epiphone itself, rather than, like his real spiritual brothers Amos Lee and Ray LaMonagne to leave by a Greg Leisz or Doyle Bramhall play II, however, these two top vocally better than he and at least the second also writes the songs more interesting - but not a bad ...

.... And for this very reason it is - after I wrote that - time for the next shot bald, skinny, wrinkled, zernarbter and thicker, with stringy hair subtly depraved out men finished with musically radical Memphis R'n'B handwriting ,
