Editorial Reviews

honeydripper', the acclaimed new film written, directed and edited by john sayles, revisits the genesis of rock 'n' roll - namely '50s rural blues from the deep south. The story depicts a second chance for an aging bluesman, the kick-off to a young guitar turk's career and the rise of rock 'n' roll itself. The movie features an all-star cast including danny glover, charles s. Dutton, lisa gay hamilton, stacy keach, mary steenburgen, yaya decosta and sean patrick thomas. The 15-song soundtrack features stax records veteran mable john ("no matter how she done it") along with legendary artists memphis slim ("bertha may") and lil green ("why don't you do right?)," as well as actor danny glover performing "goin' down slow." The film introduces actor/musician gary clark jr., about whom texas music magazine wrote, "probably the most talented texas guitarist since a certain srv. (stevie ray vaughan)".

5.0 out of 5 stars Before authentic Rock n Roll, March 25, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Honeydripper (Audio CD)
I believe it is wise to see the film Honeydripper to appreciate this album.
But I get the idea that this music, and it is great music, gradually introduces us to real rock n roll of the fifties.
The guitar dominates the soundtrack, not alone but with voices added. I know, that sounds strange but the singers are not really needed. Sorry singers. It's the whole atmosphere of the album that makes me want to get up and dance, or should I say jive. Boy am I glad I was in my prime when Fats Domino, Ike Turner, Chuck Berry were also in their prime.
This album is for music history buffs, and an Oldy like me.

4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable Music, February 11, 2008
This review is from: Honeydripper (Audio CD)
The soundtrack was very good. I only wish that more of it showed up in the film. The film featured maybe two full length songs that were very good and appear here on CD. From a musical perspective the movie was disappointing; buying this CD was better.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, July 29, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Honeydripper (Audio CD)
We had seen the movie and liked the music we heard. So, I got the soundtrack, even tho I know they are not always the same. Still, it was very disappointing, not at all what we had thought. Hoped for some good blues............
