5.0 out of 5 stars More than one expects, December 16, 2003

This review is from: Wolf That House Built (Audio CD)

Little Axe is actually the core members of industrial-funk outfit Tack>>Head (who in turn play under a number of other guises; Strange Parcels, Videohead, and various On-U-Sound label appearances). They are also the original Sugarhill Rap labels house band and its members include Doug Wimbish (of Living Colour) and Keith LeBlanc (on the first NIN record). They are very ecelctic, and this is their dub-blues-asian subcontinental record. Mostly driven by fattened low end bass, slinky delta blues guitar parts and clean, crisp drum, it is augmented by a strong collage of sampled blues men along with original vocals as world beat flourishes, funk, and ambient electronica all thorwn into one coherent brew. A very low-key but sublime recording.

I bought this in 95 and still play it regularly, (and I have thousands of tunes at home to chose from!) this blend of blues and ambient is absolutely brilliant, with bass that will knock you over. I don't know anyone who I have played this CD for who didn't fall for it immediately. Obviously put together by people who both know their music and love what they are doing.

AS both a reggae lover and a blues lover I was immediatly drawn to this CD.My favorite track is"Out in the rain....". A great mix of dub and blues.I literally wore the cd out,(the top part where it gets gripped at wore down). If you like blues or even trip hop, you'll like this.
