Tears Mississippi

Requiring a disc as usual when you listen Mighty Mo Rodgers and unusual as usually: 16 titles in 42 min! It is very rare blues: no title is long. The CD is not a very easy access, no tube for example: it's music, good, modern blues without unnecessary frills. MMR is a great melodist. And texts! and what texts! Since only 15, when he was already 72 years old, MMR delivers us, too rarely, lavish jewelry. In each work he wrote a complete cd, a history, in the 1970s it was said a "concept album." He wants to write a work in twelve volumes, this is the sixth. It is quite important to read the texts. Dixiefrog gives the texts and they are accompanied by relevant comments. This album lacks some keyboards, it's a little chatty, production lacks a bit of heat. This is why, despite my praise, I must say that it does not reach here the extraordinary level of his first two CDs. But there is still a great album.
