Let the Drummer Have Some

"Unless you're a big fan of Max Roach or a percussionist yourself, chances are you don't buy many records for the drumming. This one is defintely worth your money. Sam Carr is the anchor and the driver on this sparkling Delta blues record, keeping time like a German train conductor. Carr has a fine vocalist and guitarist in the lightly-recorded Andrew Turner. There's enough shuffle and drone here that you can close your eyes and pretend you are, as the title suggests, "Down in the Delta.""
