Handmade Blues with absolute cult character!

When I saw Seasick Steve for the first time in a TV appearance at Harald Schmidt, it has almost "cut away" me. As a full-bearded man sitting with a seemingly out various "material remains" together improvised guitar, klampfte fervently sang joyfully Blues!
This guy needs no grandstanding, no expensive equipment - give him a guitar and he plays the blues you how to do it so well heard rarely. Time rhythmic, sometimes gently, sometimes dirty, full of power - Seasick Steve has cult character!

One more thing to the sound of the disc: Steve certainly has not the right to make audiophile music and he does not have to also. The album sounds solid and absolutely fine. The guitars nicely over the singing as well, although the total mix is ​​sometimes a bit much treble and little momentum. For the super handmade blues deserved 4 stars!

Well, what can one say: buy, buy, buy! Here one has of Seasick Steve times a rich Best Of, which is really really good. This is the epitome of Blues!
