Sam Carr's Delta Jukes - 2007 Let The Good Times Roll [EAC FLAC] Sam Carr's Delta Jukes Wikipedia: Sam Carr (born Samuel Lee McCollum, April 17, 1926 – September 21, 2009) was an American blues drummer best known as a member of the Jelly Roll Kings. Largely self-taught, Carr is noted for his "mimimalist" three-piece drum kit, consisting of a snare drum, a bass drum, and a high-hat cymbal. Carr contributed his unique drumming to albums by numerous blues musicians, including T-Model Ford, Asie Payton, Robert Walker, Paul "Wine" Jones, Lonnie Shields, Sonny Boy Williamson II, David "Honeyboy" Edwards, and Buddy Guy. In his later years, Carr led his own group, the Delta Jukes, often working with Dave Riley on guitar and vocals. The group recorded several albums, including Working for the Blues (2002), Down in the Delta (2004), and Let the Good Times Roll (2007). Carr was featured in film and television documentaries about Mississippi blues, including The Blues: Feel Like Going Home (2003), directed by Martin Scorsese. In 2007, Carr received a Heritage Award from Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour at the Governor's Awards for Excellence in the Arts ceremony in Jackson. He also received awards from Living Blues magazine. Carr is mentioned on several Mississippi Blues Trail historical markers. Carr died in a nursing home in Clarksdale of congestive heart failure at age 83. He had no children. Let The Good Times Roll Artist: Sam Carr's Delta Jukes Title: Let The Good Times Roll Producer: Fred James Release Date: November 6, 2007 Label: SPV Blue Label Genre: Blues, Electric Delta Blues, Juke Joint Blues Duration: 46:30 AllMusic Review by Michael G. Nastos: Blues drummer Sam Carr is the son of the legendary Robert Nighthawk, and from his Mississippi birthplace arrived in St. Louis, and then for good in Helena, AK, where he formed this group, the Delta Jukes. They play authentic, raw, and untamed down-home blues, replete with the rough-hewn, basic techniques that signify blues dragged through Southern mud and somewhat refined by modern electricity. On this document are two significant vocalists in Dave Riley, who sings on six cuts, and John Weston, who plays a spare basic harmonica on all the tracks, and does the lyric on two. Weston appeared on this session shortly before passing away from heart failure. Producer Fred James plays second guitar and bass, while Andrew Turner is on third guitar. Riley sings on the ragged edge for the juke-joint shuffle "Thank You Baby," the chooglin' "All Night Long," the good-time party tune "Why Do You Call," and the rocker "Hoover Den" (a typo? "Hoover Dam"?), all of which he wrote. Weston vocally shows more range and a smoother, lower timbre during his compositions, the slow "Fishing" and slower "Good Man." The rest are well-known blues standards, including an excellent steady-rollin' three-song Jimmy Reed medley. Carr sings and plays guitar in tandem with Weston for a loosey-goosey take on "Big Boss Man" and the Jimmy Rogers-penned "Sweet Home Chicago"-sounding "That's Alright." The final two tracks are a revelation, as Turner, paralleling Lonnie Brooks in sound and stance, turns in some nasty guitar and vocal work during John Lee Hooker's "Crawling King Snake" and the party anthem "Let the Good Times Roll." Though at times a bit sloppy and imprecise, this is still a fine no-frills CD that blues lovers should easily enjoy. 01. Thank You Baby (4:20) 02. All Night Long (3:47) 03.
