In terms of the blues listening ██ ██ audience, this mid-'60s Testament production was basically ██ ██ his recording debut, and it can be summarized as a grand ██ ██ entrance. Although in retrospect the music would end up not ██ ██ having all that much to do with Shines himself, who began to ██ ██ investigate acoustic blues in the following decade and would ██ ██ become much more known as a solo performer than the leader ██ ██ of an electric band such as this. The playing on this record ██ ██ is simply fascinating; in fact, it makes something of a good ██ ██ "how to" instruction for a budding blues band, although ██ ██ whether there are players around who can drum like Fred ██ ██ Below is questionable. The intelligent bassist is Lee ██ ██ Jackson, and not the guy from the Nice who had the Lee ██ ██ Jackson bass named after him. Completing the band are two ██ ██ absolute legends of Chicago blues, the pianist Otis Spann ██ ██ and harmonica player Big Walter Horton. These big names ██ ██ don't dominate the proceedings, however. There is a lot of ██ ██ material that is done with just drums and bass, or in the ██ ██ case of the mesmerizing "Tom Green's Farm," just bass and ██ ██ guitar. Stripped down to two instruments, the interplay ██ ██ involved in the blues playing here is wonderful, especially ██ ██ since the sound of Shines' electric guitar is so unusual and ██ ██ Jackson's technique is also not run-of-the-mill blues bass ██ ██ thumping. The bassist listens to Shines so carefully it ██ ██ might make the listener's heart stop, and the beautifully ██ ██ precise moments of musical mingling are the results of this ██ ██ concentration and not endless by-rote practice sessions. ██ ██ Group joy is reached by adding the drums of Below, almost ██ ██ providing yet another melodic accompaniment, as his snare ██ ██ drum playing is so tuneful. It is the sound of these three ██ ██ that dominates the album, so fans of Spann and Horton ██ ██ shouldn't expect too much of their heroes. The latter ██ ██ harmonica man did other recordings with Shines on which he ██ ██ is more prominently featured. It is Shines himself who is ██ ██ center stage, both as a vocalist and a guitarist. He excels ██ ██ in both areas, the singing providing moments of saloon-style ██ ██ jazz as well as loud, hollering blues shouting and a ██ ██ piercing, quivering vibrato that would probably have been ██ ██ good for calling in a mule that has wandered off. On guitar ██ ██ he uses space in an interesting manner, suddenly coming in ██ ██ to insert just the perfect bass line or hitting the high ██ ██ strings with the slide in a way that is excitingly harsh ██ ██ even in a style of playing known for its strong bite. On ██ ██ other tracks he tosses in bits of rhythm guitar magic, again ██ ██ jazzy, in a manner that predicts his later collaborations ██ ██ with Robert Jr. Lockwood. ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ If you enjoyed this REC, BUY IT! otherwise delete it please ██ ██ because the Artist deserves your support! ██ ██ ██ ██ ▄ ▄ ■■ ▄ ▄ ██ ██ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▓▓▓▀▀ ▀ ▀■ ■▀ ▀■ ■▀ ▀ ▀▀▓▓▓▄▄▄▄▄▄ ██ ▀▀▀▀▀▀▓█▓█▓▓▀█▓▄■ TRACK LISTING ■▄▓█▀▓▓█▓█▓▀▀▀▀▀▀ ░░ ▀▓▀ ▀▓▀ ░░ ▒▒ ▒▒ ▓▓ ▓▓ ██ 01.rollin' and tumblin' 03:14 ██ ██ 02.trouble is all i see 03:49 ██ ██ 03.mr. tom green's farm 04:02 ██ ██ 04.my black mare 03:39 ██ ██ 05.what kind of little girl are you 02:35 ██ ██ 06.so cold in vietnam 03:17 ██ ██ 07.sweet home chicago 03:32 ██ ██ 08.walkin' blues 03:33 ██ ██ 09.black panther 02:54 ██ ██ 10.two trains runnin' 03:18 ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ ▄ ▄ ■■ ▄ ▄ TOTAL: 33:53 mins ██ ██ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▓▓▓▀▀ ▀ ▀■ ■▀ ▀■ ■▀ ▀ ▀▀▓▓▓▄▄▄▄▄▄ ██ ▀▀▀▀▀▀▓█▓█▓▓▀█▓▄■ TEAM INFORMATION ■▄▓█▀▓▓█▓█▓▀▀▀▀▀▀ ░░ ▀▓▀ ▀▓▀ ░░ ▒▒ ▒▒ ▓▓ * We are always looking for: ▓▓ ██ - Talented Music Rippers (allyear, allgenre, promo, vinyl ██ ██ and radio livesets) ██ ██ - prefered 100Mbits affiliated sites (NO! 10mbit bbb!!) ██ ██ ██ ██ * We are currently looking for: ██ ██ - A Dump site ██ ██ - iRC BNC Supplier ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ And if you think that U can help us to make a better group ██ ██ don't hesitate, contact us!
