Description

Lightnin Hopkins - Soul Blues
Released: 1966 Label : Prestige
CD Released: 1991 Label: Original Blues Classics
Format : Mp3@320




Though Lightnin' Hopkins began recording in the mid-'40s in the traditional style of solo acoustic country blues, he's one of the few major blues figures who moved easily back and forth between acoustic and electric guitar and solo and full-band performances throughout his lengthy career. Recorded in 1964, Soul Blues finds Hopkins in possibly his most conducive setting, playing electric guitar backed with a bassist, Leonard Gaskin; and a drummer, Herb Lovelle.

Opening with the steady-rolling, gospel-tinged "I'm Going to Build Me a Heaven of My Own," these 10 tracks are Hopkins at the top of his game. "I'm a Crawling Black Snake" puts a personal spin on some of the hoariest blues metaphors in such a way that the song sounds brand new, and "The Howling Wolf" pays tribute to another blues legend in typical Hopkins style. Soul Blues is small-combo blues at its best.
