Charles Musselwhite, Luther Dickinson, Alvin Youngblood Hart, etc: New Moon Jelly Roll Freedom Rockers, Vol 2

Classic blue-eyed soul and blues are delivered by Charles Musselwhite/harm-voc, Alvin Youngblood Hart/g-mand-voc, Jimbo Mathis/g-voc, the late Jim Dickinson/p-voc, Luther Dickinson/g-mand-b-voc, Cody Dickinson/dr-voc, Chris Chew/b and Paul Taylor/tb on a collection of raw and rugged material. It’s a hoot to hear a new take of the keyboard thumper  “She’s About A Mover” with Hart belting it out, as well a rich read of the 50s R&Ber “Messin’ With The Kid” with Dickinson in a gritty mood. The team boogies hard on “Can’t Stand To See You Go” while Musselwhite wails like a thunderstorm on “Blues For Yesterday” and the stark “Black Water”. Luther’s guitar resonates like a howling coyote on the dirge “Blue Guitar” and the team shuffles the blues on “Seachlight”. Blues breakers and makers.
