This album could be described as the record any bluesman would like to make. With traditional electric blues numbers as well as classic slide guitar solos, Hammond seems takes you through the entire Blues timeline of the last 100 years. Love Changing Blues stands out for me as the song which best exemplifies Hammonds adoration for the early delta blues style, but also allows his voice to be heard as it should be. But there are other tracks such as the opening Just Your Fool which take you back through the rock and roll blues of the 60s and 70s, and point early hints to the future collaboration with Tom Waits for Wicked Grin. Overall this is just a great blues record by a great bluesman.

not "Too tired" for John Hammond
21 Nov 2000
Format:Audio CD
Twenty nine years ago in a gymnasium in Fredonia NY I sat close enough to John Hammond performing to see the sweat drip from his nose. It was a moving experience and made me begin to love the blues. This past summer I was again lucky enough to see him perform and was impressed with his voice, his guitar and his deep reverence for the music he loves.
On the CD Trouble No More John Hammond displays his love for the blues and his wonderful abilities. The CD has a good choice of blues standards as Just Your Fool by Little Walter, Love Changin' Blues by Willie McTell and Baby How Long by Chester Burnett, along with some new numbers by Rick Estrin Of Little Charlie and the Nightcats. While it is hard to pick a favorite I am particularly fond of Too Tired and the Nasty Swing.
He teams with the excellent guitar work of Charlie Baty (Little Charlie) and the harmonica playing of Rick Estrin on a number of the songs. Also of note Charles Brown played piano on Trouble Blues.
John Hammond has a voice that is very sexy and pleasing to a woman's ears, so take a listen.
If I could have...

only one John Hammond album, it would be this one. Although it was recorded over 10 years ago, the sound closely reproduces what I heard the last time John came through Denver a year or so ago. From the Jimmie Rodgers cover "Nasty Swing" to a spectacularly pure "Love Changing Blues" to "Fool's Paradise" and even a little jazzy Mose Allison, this is all great! Enjoy.
