Otis Taylor Otis Taylor in San Diego 2006 Otis Taylor at the Liri Blues fest., Italy, in 2010 Otis Taylor Band Anne Harris, Todd Edmunds, OTIS TAYLOR, Larry Thompson and Shawn Starski at Fasching, Stockholm June 2012 Wikipedia: Otis Taylor (born July 30, 1948, Chicago, Illinois, United States) is an American blues musician. He is a multi-instrumentalist whose talents include the guitar, banjo, mandolin, harmonica, and vocals. In 2001, he was awarded a fellowship to the Sundance Film Composers Laboratory. Defintion Of A Circle Release Date: 2006 Label: Telarc – CD -83659 Duration: 53:58 Genre: Blues Styles: Contemporary Blues, Electric Country Blues, Modern Acoustic Blues In many cases, modern-day blues artists merely ape the blues masters of yesteryear -- following the blueprint to a T. So it is truly a breath of fresh air when Otis Taylor releases a new album, such as 2007's Definition of a Circle. Sure, there are elements of modern-day blues-rock detected (namely, the inclusion of guest guitarist Gary Moore on certain tunes), but Taylor is not stuck to the instruments that are usually associated with blues-rock. Case in point, such tunes as "Black's Mandolin Boogie," "Maharaja Daughter," and "Mexican Cowboy," which utilize such instruments as banjo, mandolin, electric cello, cornet, lap steel, etc. That said, there are several tunes that would certainly fit comfortably in the "modern-day blues-rock" category, including "Love and Hesitation" and "Something in Your Back Pocket" (which showcase Moore's electric guitar talents), as well as tunes such as "Little Betty" and "They Wore Blue," which fit somewhere between the two aforementioned approaches. Otis Taylor is one of the few modern-day bluesmen that manages to avoid stylistic clichés, as heard throughout Definition of a Circle. 01. Little Betty 4:13 02. Black's Mandolin Boogie 4:01 03.
