5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Stuff!,
By KikkoMan (Minneapolis, MN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: One Word (Audio CD)
If you like a little oldtime hop and step in your blues, this is for you. Great forward driving slide guitar, but it's the washboard playing that adds the extra oomph to this music. Best tracks: Cottenwood, Landlord Blues, John Henry, Graverobbers Blues, Long-haired Doeny. Gee, I guess I just listed most of the tracks on the album. I defy you to not stomp your foot and bob your head to this music.

ONE WORD? GREAT!!,
By G. J. Cook (key west fl) - See all my reviews
This review is from: One Word (Audio CD)
HILLSTOMP PLAYS BACK-WATER, JUKE-JOINT, NORTH MISSISSIPPI HILL COUNTRY BLUES. AND THEY PLAY IT GOOD TOO. HENRY KAMMERER'S SLIDE IS RIGHT ON THE MONEY. AND JOHN JOHNSON'S "WEIRD" PERCUSSION--TIN CANS,WASHBOARD, POT LIDS, ETC.--MAKES IT ALL FIT LIKE A GLOVE. I LIKE "GRAVEROBBER'S BLUES" AND "FLOOD BLUES" AS MY FAVORITES, BUT ALL THE SONGS ON THIS CD ARE GREAT. IF YOU DIG HILL COUNTRY STYLE BLUES, YOU'LL DIG HILLSTOMP'S "ONE WORD". ONE WORD? GREAT!!

Good times,
By cosmokane31 (San Francisco, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: One Word (Audio CD)
Hillstomp is a Portland, Oregon-based duo that plays minimalist, Fat Possum-style blues. Deft acoustic slide guitar and bucket-and-can percussion accompany "sung through a telephone" vocals. Most of the songs are funky and percussive, but "Lucy's Lament" brings in mandolin and group vocals for an old time music feel. What the Old Crow Medicine Show does for old time music, Hillstomp does for the blues - kick out the jams with refreshing energy.
