Corey Harris - 2013 - Fulton Blues (2014 Deluxe Edition) [EAC FLAC]  Corey Harris  Corey Harris in 2007 Corey Harris is a guitarist, songwriter, and performer who is leading a contemporary revival of country blues with a fresh, modern hand. He is a powerful and compelling singer and an accomplished guitarist whose musical artistry is complemented by serious explorations of the historical and cultural conditions that gave rise to the blues. Corey Harris was born in Denver, Colorado to parents from Texas and Kentucky, he has carved out his own niche in Blues appearing at venues throughout the world. He began his career as a New Orleans street singer, travelling throughout the southern U.S. In his early twenties he lived in Cameroon, West Africa for a year, which had a profound effect on his later work. He has recorded many old songs of the blues tradition while also creating an original vision of the blues by adding influences from reggae, soul, rock and West African music. His 1995 recording, Between Midnight and Day, is a tribute to the tradition of acoustic blues. Subsequent recordings, such as Greens From the Garden (1999), Mississippi to Mali (2003), and Daily Bread (2005) show Harris' maturation from interpreter to songwriter. Some of his imaginative compositions are marked by a deliberate eclecticism; other works stay true to the traditional blues formula of compelling vocals and down-home guitar. With one foot in tradition and the other in contemporary experimentation, Harris is a truly unique voice in contemporary music, well on his way to becoming the alchemist of black music, recombining its constituent elements into new and powerful substances. He has performed, recorded, and toured with many of the top names in music such as BB King, Taj Mahal, Buddy Guy, R.L.Burnside, Ali Farka Touré, Dave Matthews Band, Tracy Chapman, Wilco, Natalie Merchant, and others. Harris was a featured artist and narrator of the Martin Scorsese film, "Feel Like Going Home," which traced the evolution of Blues from West Africa to the southern U.S. Fulton Blues (2014 Deluxe Edition)  Artist: Corey Harris Title: Fulton Blues (Deluxe Edition) Producer: Corey Harris, Chris Whitley Release Date: January 31, 2013, (2014) Label: Blues Boulevard Catalog: 250360 ASIN: B00B6N1PK4 Genre: Blues, Acoustic Blues, Country Blues, Reggae Duration: 51:47 AllMusic Review by Steve Leggett: Corey Harris takes a decidedly anthropological and academic approach to the blues, deeply researching its variants and origins, and he's become adept at combining West African, Jamaican, and Creole rhythms with traditional country blues forms in a manner so natural that the cracks and fissures between now and then and between here and there never seem to show. This set finds him revisiting the many different approaches he's taken to the blues over the years, from solo acoustic guitar tracks to full-blown band-with-horn-section tracks, and he does it all with the same sort of slightly ragged, live feel, which is perhaps why Harris' performances always seem fresh and energized, even if the song he's singing dwells on weariness, pain, or injustice. There are many fine highlights of that here, including the timeless horn-driven jump blues opener "Crying Blues," the organ and horn-led deep soul-blues of "Tallahatchie," and the swampy, North Mississippi drone blues of "Catfish Blues," but overall, Fulton Blues has a sort of random feel, as if Harris just kept changing blues hats at whim, track after track, until he'd worn them all. That would be a bad thing if Harris wasn't engaging as a performer no matter what hat he wears, but here he does seem to be surveying where's he's been more than deciding where he may go next.  01.
