Synopsis

Album Description
On his Innerhythmic debut, and among Innerhythmic's initial releases is the legendary James Blood Ulmer. Although best known for his work with harmolodics and Ornette Coleman, Blue Blood finds him returning to his Southern Roots and sensibilities and playing some hard, raw blues in a style that only he can claim. Along with a stellar cast of producer Bill Laswell, P-Funk warriors Bernie Worrell and Jerome "Bigfoot" Brailey and gospel great Amina Claudine Myers, Blood delivers something for both his dedicated jazz fans and also serves as an excellent introduction to new listeners. James Blood Ulmer has developed an art which is virtuostic and experimental in the great tradition of Jazz, yet retains the emotional authenticity of Rock and Blues. His own, very unique sound continues push the boundaries of genre bending music.
 

CD Reviews

Righting A Wrong
S. Pearson | Halifax | 12/05/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Just here to bring balance by countering the bone-headed 1 star review. One star because the "kid" is too stupid to read the man's name beside the title!



Superbly inventive jazz guitar, smeared with blues and funk."
Another brilliant Ulmer release !

"Much underrated JBU mixes some haunting blues with his far-out guitar antics.

Great rhythm section makes it good driving the car or even doing the dishes.

My no 1 guitarist amongst the living !"
