4.0 out of 5 stars
one of the great Blues pianists,
By jon atack "jonatack.com" (nottingham, england) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Every Day I Have the Blues (Audio CD)
A fine introduction to one of the great Blues pianists, the eminent pupil of Roosevelt Sykes. Twenty-five of the best tracks recorded in his heyday between 1940 and 1948. Memphis Slim was guitarist Big Bill Broonzy's pianist of choice, and he had a fine Blues voice too. The songs range from risque humour to true lowdown Blues. There are a couple of good talking Blues, reminiscent of Nat King Cole's work at the same time, and a nod to the contemporary Jump Blues of Louis Jordan. This is the peak of Chicago Blues when Muddy Waters arrived in the windy city to electrify us all.
