CD Reviews

Perfect Piano Blues

Daniel B. Pepper | New York | 07/29/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a perfect piano Blues album, featuring the talents of the great Roosevelt Sykes. There is not a weak song on this album. "Yes, Lawd", "Miss Ida B." and "Mislead Mother" are particularly enjoyable. To me, Sykes was better than all the rest; Memphis Slim, Sunnyland Slim, Eddie Boyd, etc. Do yourself a favor and pick this disc up!"

Classic

Heights Curmudgeon | Brooklyn, NY United States | 08/18/2007

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Fantastic blues. Seminal. Good recording, modern fidelity (a lot of the great classics have poor tonal range.)"
