One Track Mind 1994 2001 2008

Search: Bourgeois Blues
by: Rod Clements

Release Date July 07, 2008
One of the founding members of Geordie folk/rock group Lindisfarne, Rod steps out on his own with some help from mates Ray Laidlaw and Steve Cunningham. But, make no mistake, this is Rod Clements showing himself and his roots.

With his own compositions interspersed with a variety of traditional and cover arrangements, Rod lays down a veriety of blues/folk tunes that show the talent that has always been there. Here you can see how Rod has blended his early blues influences with his own Northeastern English blues/folk experiences. This talented musician is starting to show folks just what he can do.

Well worth having.

Chicken Skin Music

Search: Bourgeois Blues
by: Ry Cooder

Release Date December 15, 2007
This is the most essential of a list of essential Ry Cooder albums. If you only ever buy one of his CDs, make it this one.

I wore the vinyl out and had to buy it again and then I had to buy the CD. Someone borrowed the CD, they moved and I never got it back so I had to buy it again.

The playing is immaculate, it is simply wonderful music. The Mexican influences are great and really bring an extra dimension. This is the culmination of everything RC did before and overshadows everything he has done since.

Buy this album.

Over 70 songs, spanning his first recordings in 1934, and his very last ones before he was forced to quit the guitar due to an arm injury in 1949. His twelve string guitar merely emphasises this emotion, by giving his songs a much deeper sound. And his voice...Wow. What a powerful voice. This man could carry any tune home without trying, and It was a shame that he did'nt live any longer.
The first disc is basically all of his greatest hits. For example, the very fist track, "Grasshopper in my Pillow", displays one of his catchier riffs that he ... Read More:
