They Say...
One of the greatest slide guitarists of the early blues era, and a man with an odd fascination with the kazoo, Tampa Red also fancied himself a piano player and bandleader, tendencies that come to the fore on this ninth installment of Document's attempt to release all of his known recorded work in chronological order. Covering the years 1937 and 1938, this collection is hardly typical of Red's work, since it has relatively few tracks featuring his trademark National Steel slide sound. Half of the disc is given over to small combo jazz pieces featuring Tampa Red's pleasant but ordinary vocal skills, and while these tracks are certainly professional and competent, it is a bit like discovering a Jimi Hendrix record with no guitar on it.
“ The indie iTunes — Hardcore music fans are migrating to eMusic, the iTunes Music Store's cheaper, cooler cousin.”
