Terry Evans is one of the most soulful male singers around today. Evans has been featured on numerous recordings with such notable artists as John Fogerty, John Lee Hooker, Rosanne Cash, Boz Scaggs, Joan Armatrading, Dave Alvin, Burton Cummings, Maria Muldaur, Pops Staples, Van Dyke Parks and Marvin Gaye among others. Evans has also put his personal style on four critically-acclaimed solo albums. In addition, Terry Evans has teamed with Ry Cooder to provide backing vocals on several albums and in his live band. Terry was the lead singer and featured guitar player on the Crossroads movie soundtrack. Given that Terry Evans' sound is deeply rooted in the blues of the Mississippi Delta, Mississippi Magic is the perfect title for his fifth solo album.




Review by Hal Horowitz
Terry Evans' fifth solo effort -- not including two with fellow vocalist Bobby King -- is his first not featuring guitar master and ex-employer Ry Cooder. While that may disappoint Cooder fans, especially since his work on previous Evans discs was some of the guitarist's best and most incisive non-soundtrack R&B/rock/blues playing of the '90s, it allows this album more room for the singer and his rugged touring group to strut their stuff. Recorded primarily live in the studio in only four days with his longtime backing musicians, Mississippi Magic is a rollicking example of Evans' uncut, non-commercialized, gritty gospel and swamp vocals. He reprises and rearranges the earlier tracks "Let Love Begin" and "Where We Gonna Go," which were originally recorded on albums with King. He also taps Jorge Calderon (who goes under the alias of J.C. Parsons for two more, and turns in stunning versions of "Don't Let the Green Grass Fool You" and especially Willie Dixon's "Mellow Down Easy." The latter finds his band locking together on a joyous, upbeat groove where Evans is positively jubilant and proves how tight and capable this group is. Elsewhere, guitarist Jesse Samsel turns in solos that are so similar to Cooder's -- especially when he lets his slide loose on "Let Love Begin" -- you'll be checking the liner notes to be sure who's playing. Evans digs into this material with the gruff but affable approach that added such down-home Southern soul to Cooder's and Hans Theessink's work. His version of Theessink's "Where the Southern Crosses the Dog" is one of this disc's highlights, but there is truly not a weak track here. Whether he's singing straight blues or testifying with religion-soaked R&B, Evans brings ferocious, rousing soul power to Mississippi Magic.

Честно скажу - всегда обожал эту серию Pure Analogue записей от Audioquest - звук мощный и детальный - каждый инструмент прописан досконально.
И приятная мягкость аналоговой ленты - мне ваще оцифрованный в DSD аналог наравится больше, чем прямые записи Pure DSD.

Музыка тоже классная - Terry Evans зажигает!

Да, и самое главное - CD трансфер сдесь новый - сделан Bernie Grundman из DSD мастера. Так шо звук здесь лучше, чем на оригинальном ЦД от Audioquest!
Enjoy!
