QUOTE | Gatemouth Brown has always had a soft spot for songs that breathe the air of his native Southwest. On Back to Bogalusa, he's put together an entire album of them, drawing on the work of songwriters like Bobby Charles ("It All Comes Back," "Why Are People Like That"), Delbert McClinton ("Lie No Better"), and Hoyt Garrick ("Folks Back Home," "Louisian'"). Cajun echoes drift across the album's landscape--Zachary Richard's accordion, Brown's fiddling in "Breaux Bridge Rag"--and Sonny Landreth puts the raccoons to flight with thunderous slide guitar on Lowell George's "Dixie Chicken" and a couple of other numbers. Some of the songs are either too sentimental or too oblique to suit Brown's plain approach and grandfatherly voice, but his old blues heart beats strongly on Don Nix's "Same Old Blues," and he struts his stuff like a... well, like a Dixie chicken in the defiantly boastful "Bogalusa Boogie Man." --Tony Russell |
QUOTE | Another amazing work of this multi instrumentist who's talents abound!!This is really a masterpiece since the first track until the end.Clarence is back to his roots,revisiting some tunes that were listened at that so far distant days of the begining of this fantastic career.The kind and way Clarence makes music is something only we can find in only few excelent musicians.The reason i like so much his music,is because i really like refination in many things specially,music.And this cd is full of refined moments.A gem!!!!Unloss this work,if you really loves excelent music!!! |
QUOTE | This is one CD that keeps me smiling from the opening notes of "Folks Back Home" until the final song, a humorous ode to gators, "Dangerous Critter". Even though Clarence is pushing slowly towards 80 years of age, he can still swing with the best of them. He demonstrates his famous finger picking dexterity on tune after tune and his voice is slightly weathered, but warm and engaging. I find myself constantly singing along on "It All Comes Back" and my favorite, "Breaux Bridge Rag".I guarantee you will sing along with him too. These songs have a swaying, flowing feel, like sipping a beer or lemonade on a hot,lazy summer day and thinking that life is good, that convey the sincerity of this great artist's vocals. He demonstrates that he can still knock out an uptempo tune on the funky "Bogalusa Boogie Man" and my favorite rocker "Lie No Better". Throw in a couple of swinging instrumentals,"Grape Jelly" and "Slap It" and you have the makings of a great CD. In my opinion, there isn't a weak song in the whole set and this is one of my favorite listens. I sure hope we are blessed with many more years of "Gatemouth", because I surely enjoy listening to this and other CD's he's made. I highly recommend you give this a listen...actually, buy it! You will not be disappointed.Every person I have loaned this to has told me they love it. |
Very nice cd of one of the great bluesman.With a very personal touch in the guitar(one of is marks), not to say Mr.Brown it´s a master of the fiddle,who plays it like no many others,this is without doubt a "must have".I found it on the network,but i have in my collection a lot of Mr.Brown cd´s. I will release one or two ,one of this day.For the moment enjoy this one and thanks for the guy who shared it.
