Customer Review

What exactly do you get here to hear Well? Davis Coen, this is ..... rollin'n'tumblin in continuous passage, not so much the gleichtitelige song, more the corresponding blues feel the authentic setting of the Mississippi Delta, Electric Mud - sort of. Why not, he does not bad, this reliance on traditional things he packed in different variations - between Mckinley Morganfield whose early You Gonna Miss Me he is covering, Chester Burnett, from him comes the acquired Natchez Burning, and give Davis Coen, both with 'ner interesting, distinctive voice, and there with a interesting and partly fulminant played guitar mainly, and in particular, in the song Shake You Goobie, and comes as the majority of the songs, actually by him, but .. ,

... Comes a voice hard familiar, and a similar fate with the type of preparation of the musical tradition, if one belongs to those who have dug through the history of the white blues: Tony TS McPhee, also known as The Groundhog, in both cases is the reference - but that is a coincidence, Coen will not know him all Wahrscheinlchkeit after. And yet - you McPhee's Natchez Burning Listen to Groundhogs' Blues Orbituary recording on .... amazing.
And then the guitar: first is unclear to me whether he plays himself as a second guitarist is called - Jimbo Mathus, the current master of ceremonies of the Delta Blues, or rather the mystical High-priest who with his splintery shredder sound Gibson semi-hollow, as well as a producer for over twenty years, can be incorporated into all possible and impossible his sound ideas - the Magnolia country just as well. But here he accepts largely only the part of bassist. The so Mathus moderate sounding Gibson is really from Coen.

Well, that's what Coen plays here, very authentic, with an almost unbelievable coincidence - no, more, coincidence here is the correct term - from archaic and the modern. Quite naturally - as always with a Mathus production.

SO has "modern" metal sound! Rank: 5/5
