(4 out of 5 stars)

"Reddick comes from a distinguished national singer-songwriter tradition that boasts Bruce Cockburn, Leonard Cohen, Joni Mitchell, and Neil Young. What distinguishes Reddick from them and everyone else is that he writes blues songs, an art form that has just about disappeared, as today's blues performers focus primarily on guitar virtuosity. With verses like this-



Sometime when you look at me

All my troubles cease to be

You are lovely, you are fine

You've got the devilment on your mind



Oh so fine, a heart so pure

You're alluringly demure

You're the fruit upon the vine

You've got the devilment on your mind



--Reddick draws his inspiration from the lyric and melodic excellence of Robert Johnson. On Sugar Bird, Reddick commands a variety of blues styles with such aplomb that that it seems perfectly natural and right for the rollicking "It's Later Than You Think" to succeed the aching "John Lennon In New Orleans." Any Reddick CD is worth having, and Sugar Bird is a great place to start. Highly recommended."

"If you have Paul's "Rattlebag" cd, you have a great one! "Sugarbird" is just fabulous! A must have if you love Paul Reddick and his blues poetry, and he still blows a mean harp."
