Search - Jimmy Barnes :: Rhythm & The Blues (Bonus Dvd)

Just as he did with the unforgettable, mega-selling Soul Deep tribute albums in the 1990s, Jimmy Barnes once again takes us for a ride in the musical time machine. But this time for a blast of vintage material of another kind, the rhythm and the blues. But rather than being a follow up to his previous multi-platinum selling Soul albums, it's more like a prequel. Armed with a band of sizzling session musos in LA and trusty US producer Don Gehman (Soul Deep, Soul Deeper) at the helm, Barnes respectfully channels the spirit of yesteryear's music giants, putting his best foot forward and letting rip . as he always does.He effortlessly discovers the same musical mojo that drove great "blues shouter" Big Joe Turner for a mighty take on Shake, Rattle And Roll; and digs deep into the Sun Records vault for an electrifying version of Billy Lee Riley's Red Hot. And there's plenty more where that came from. Jimmy breaks stride for a few tender moments that blend seamlessly with this classic line-up, proving his precious pipes can mix it with the best. None more so than the swooning falsetto and soulful, country ache of Reconsider Me and the utterly captivating way he vocally caresses Nina Simone's My Baby Just Cares For Me. Welcome to The Rhythm And The Blues. 13 song CD & DVD featuring five video clips shot exclusively for this collectors edition. Also featuring five high quality collectors' photocards.
