5.0 out of 5 stars
Soulful blues from one of the great songwriters,
By Frederick Rudofsky (East Greenbush, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sexual Telepathy (Audio CD)
With backing by Ronnie Earl and the Broadcasters, The Antone's House Band, and fellow New Orleans geniuses Snooks Eaglin and (The Meters) George Porter, Jr., Earl King delivers a standout album of ballads, funk, and uptempo boogies. Lyrically he covers things with humor, sensitivity, and invention. Songs like wry "Old Mr Bad Luck", the spiritual trance-like "Time For the Sun to Rise", the cautionary "No One More for the Road" and the ribald title cut echo in the memory long after listening. This is no down and out blues singer-- even when dealing with grim topics, King's turn of phrase and optimism (esp. "Make a Better World") lift the songs to another realm. His voice is gritty but warm in a spoken singing way and his guitar is percussive and biting. It's no wonder Jimi Hendrix, SRV and countless others have covered his songs and cited him as an influence.If you're having a party, bring some Earl King and let the "Sexual Telepathy" of his music get you and yours on the dance floor-- or on the floor.....
