4.0 out of 5 stars
Continuing the tradition., March 19, 2001
This review is from: Ramblin Mind (Audio CD)
Big Bill's third release is chock full of guest artists including several that performed with his father, Muddy Waters, band. Guests include, Taj Mahal, Bob Margolin, Pinetop Perkins, Willie Smith, Paul Oscher and Bill Lupkin to name a few.
Despite the guests, Big Bill's performance seems a little lack luster and slightly below his two earlier releases, the overlooked and underrated "Nineteen Years Old"--available through Taxim.com and, the award winning "Rising Son"--available here on Amazon.com. The two strongest cuts are those featuring the vocals of Taj Mahal, "Strong Man Holler" and "You're Gonna Miss Me." While nothing ground breaking on this CD, Bill certainly carries on the fine tradition of the Delta blues. Worth the purchase, but don't overlook the previous two releases.
