5.0 out of 5 stars Righting A Wrong
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.

3.0 out of 5 stars Too slick
"hard, raw blues in a style that only he can claim." Really? Are we listening to the same album? Honestly, this sounds pretty good, it's just that I have trouble finding James Blood Ulmer on it. His jagged, quirky style is overwhelmed by Bill Laswell's slick production. He sounds like a sideman on his own album. The "blue" in the title would lead you to believe that...

5.0 out of 5 stars Another brilliant Ulmer release !, February 24, 2005
This review is from: Blue Blood (Audio CD)
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 !

His jagged, quirky style is overwhelmed by Bill Laswell's slick production. He sounds like a sideman on his own album. The "blue" in the title would lead you to believe that this is in the same vein as "Memphis Blood" or "No Escape From The Blues", but there is only a little blues influence. Its mostly funk, and pretty good at that. But I expected a James Blood Ulmer album rather than a Bill Laswell album.
