Hill managed to resuscitate both his own ░░ semi-flagging career and the entire genre at large when he signed on at ░░ Jackson, Mississippi-based Malaco Records in 1980 and began growling his ░░ way through some of the most uncompromising blues to be unleashed on ░░ Black radio stations in many a moon. His impressive 1982 Malaco album ░░ Down Home Blues remained on Billboard's soul album charts for nearly two ░░ years, an extraordinary run for such a blatantly bluesy LP. His songs ░░ "Down Home Blues" and "Somebody Else Is Steppin' In" have graduated into ░░ the ranks of legitimate blues standards. ░░ ░░ Arzell Hill started out singing gospel with a quintet called the ░░ Spiritual Five, but the output of B.B. King, Bobby Bland, and especially ░░ Sam Cooke made a more indelible mark on his approach. He began gigging ░░ around Dallas, fashioning his distinctive initials after those of B.B. ░░ King. When his older brother Matt Hill (a budding record producer with ░░ his own label, M.H.) invited Z.Z. to go west to Southern California, the ░░ young singer did. ░░ ░░ His debut single on M.H., the gutsy shuffle "You Were Wrong" (recorded in ░░ an L.A. garage studio), showed up on the pop chart for a week in 1964. ░░ With such a relatively successful showing his first time out, Hill's fine ░░ subsequent singles for the Bihari Brothers' Kent logo should have been ░░ even bigger. However, "I Need Someone (To Love Me)," "Happiness Is All I ░░ Need," and a raft of other deserving Kent 45s (many produced and arranged ░░ by Maxwell Davis) went nowhere commercially for the singer. Excellent ░░ singles for Atlantic, Mankind, and Hill (another imprint operated by ░░ brother Matt, who served as Z.Z.'s producer for much of his career) ░░ preceded a 1972 hookup with United Artists that resulted in three albums ░░ and six R&B chart singles over the next couple of years. ░░ ░░ From there, Z.Z. moved on to Columbia, where his 1977 single "Love Is So ░░ Good When You're Stealing It" became his biggest-selling hit of all. But ░░ Hill's vocal grit was never more effective than on his blues-soaked ░░ Malaco output. From 1980 until 1984, when he died suddenly of a heart ░░ attack, Z.Z. bravely led a personal back-to-the-blues campaign that ░░ doubtless helped to fuel the subsequent contemporary blues boom. It's a ░░ shame he couldn't stick around to see it blossom. ░░ ░░█ ░░███ ░█ ░░░░██ █▓█ ████░ ░░░░░██ y o o v e e y o o █████ █████ ░░░░░░██ g o t t h e ▒████░ ██▒▒██ ░░░░░░░█ ░ ██▓██ ▓█▒██ ░░░░░░░█ ███ ███ ███ ███ ███ ████ ▒▓███ ▒███ ░░░░░░░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ █░█ █░█ ░███████ ████░ ░███ ░░░░░░░█ ░███░███░█ █░███░███ █████████▒ █████ ██ ░░░░░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░░░█ ██████████████ █████ █ ░░░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ██████████████████ ████▓ ░░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ████████████████████▒ ░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ▓██████▒▒▒▒███████░ ░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ▓█████▒███████████ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ █████▒▒░████████ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ██▓██▒██▓███▒ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░░░█ ██████████ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░███░█ ░███ ▒███████ /─────────────────────────\ ░░░██ ███ ░| learned from vets |░ ░░░░██ ████ ░| and they |░ ░░░░░██ █████ ░| ain't pet doctors |░ ░░░░░░███ ████▒ \─────────────────────────/ ░░░░░░░▓▓█████████████▒ ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ https://www.deezer.com/us/album/6945342
