4.0 out of 5 stars
A fine example of swampy acoustic blues,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Michael Juan Nunez (Audio CD)
Michael Juan Nunez is a cut above your run-of-the-mill blues guitar slingers, mostly because he plays with such taste. He doesn't dazzle with hot licks, but everything is played perfectly. He doesn't push the frontiers of music, but he is a carbon copy of nobody. Think of Sonny Landreth playing acoustic, take out the pyrotechnics, and you get something like this album. It is just solid, swampy, Cajun-influenced acoustic blues played with the utmost taste by a solid musician. Nunez' follow-up album, About to Snap, is a more diverse album, switching back and forth between electric and acoustic, and pushing stylistic boundaries a bit further. Both are good, but this is album is geared more towards the acoustic crowd.Further listening (aside from Sonny Landreth): Harry Bodine: Which Way Home. This one combines blues with New Orleans R&B rather than Cajun, but is in a similar vein. Russell Gulley: Back to the Swamp. More swampy acoustic blues. Corey Harris & Henry Butler: Vu-Du Menz. Fine acoustic blues guitar and arguably the best New Orleans pianist around-- a must-have. Mofro: Lochloosa. A perfect album. http://eclecticmusicblog.blogspot.com/ |
