The Blind Boys of Alabama / Spirit of the Century - CD (Used)
Brand: Real World
PartNumber: 8509182
Details: Review Chorale blues. Nouvelle signature du label Real World, Blind Boys Of Alabama ne représente pas spécialement ce quon appelle communément un groupe en développement, puisquil existe depuis 1939 ! Voilà qui calmera les vieux grincheux Rolling Stones (qui font partie des artistes repris, avec Tom Waits et Ben Harper), via une magnifique leçon de savoir-faire, accompagnée pour loccasion par quelques pointures, donc Charlie Musselwhite, John Hammond, David Lindley ou Danny Thompson, ce qui rajoute du panache à un disque déjà fort attachant. Clarence Fountain, fondateur des Boys, dit quil a réellement essayé de recréer lesprit qui était le leur lors de leur création, voici plus de 60 ans, au Talladega Institute pour personnes aveugles. Pari réussi ! - 12 titres, 47m14s - -- Compact Amazon.ca Long known as the Five Blind Boys of Alabama, this venerable gospel institution has seen its ranks fluctuate in recent years. Rarely, however, have the soul-stirring harmonies of the group, recording here as a quartet, benefited from such stellar support. Producer John Chelew (best known for John Hiatt's breakthrough Bring the Family) has enlisted guitarists David Lindley and John Hammond, bassist Danny Thompson, drummer Michael Jerome, and harmonica ace Charlie Musselwhite for a set that celebrates the bluesy underpinnings of gospel. The selection of material mixes the traditional spirituals the group has been performing for more than a half century ("Nobody's Fault but Mine," "Motherless Child") with soulful readings from the more contemporary songbooks of Tom Waits, the Rolling Stones, and Ben Harper. Harper's "Give a Man a Home" receives a majestic vocal from Clarence Fountain, while the album's most audacious cut pairs the lyrics to "Amazing Grace" with the melody from "House of the Rising Sun." --Don McLeese
