Editorial Reviews

Leslie West returns to the Blues Bureau label with "Blue Me," a collection of rock blues rock covers done in the inimitable West style. "Blue Me" contains the kind of guttural vocals and soulful bluesy guitar playing that have established Leslie as one of the greatest talents in the history of rock and roll .

I got this one from Amazon the moment it was issued. No regret! I should admit I am a Leslie West fan. This helps to appreciate this CD the moment you push the play button. For all casual listeners - don't hasitate to check this set of covers. All songs have Leslies' signature on them plus some excellent backing from the other musicians, including some beautiful piano playing.

Blues rock guitar at it's best, inovative and modern. Good work Leslie!

Thanks again Leslie.

I liked Leslie West's music for years, but starting with PHAT it turned to love. PHAT was great, but Blues to Die For, Got Blooze, and now Blue Me are fantastic. It is just my kind of blues; slow and deep.

Blue Me follows Leslie's last few entries; all covers. This is fine with me. No need to re-invent the wheel. Just do the greats as only the greatest can do them. Keep'em coming Leslie, keep'em coming.

The samples do not do this CD justice.

4.0 out of 5 stars The third Blues CD from Leslie, July 22, 2006

By 

Bluematter "Bluematter" (Colorado) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Blue Me (Audio CD)

This is Leslie's third Blues CD in a row starting with Blues to Die For, Blooze, and now Blue Me. For my money the second one Blooze was the best of the bunch, however there is alot here worth giving a listen to. Leslie explores the work of Joplin, Ten Years After, and Humble Pie to name a few. All of this with his signature sound (which I love to hear)The piano work on a number of the tunes works well complementing Leslie's guitar. If you like rock and roll blues with that down and dirty Leslie West feel then you need to add this to your collection.
