Description
Guitar Jr.(Lonnie Brooks) – Broke An' Hungry
Label: Capitol Records Released: 1969 Format : Mp3@320  After toiling for two decades as a support musician, session man, and performer of moderately successful regional hits in the 1950s and 1960s, Lonnie Brooks rose to prominence as an elder statesman of rock-and-roll infused blues music in the late 1970s. Brooks's popularity primarily arose due to his continuous touring, good-natured stage presence, and distinctive fiery guitar playing. His album releases, while most often categorized as blues, have transcended the limits of the genre by incorporating such diverse musical styles as Cajun, zydeco, country, funk, and rock. Along with this hodgepodge of musical influences, Brooks also tilts his musical hat to such blues stalwarts as Texas guitarist T-Bone Walker and Chicago guitarist Jimmy Reed. The net result is a musical amalgam that critics somewhat reductively call swamp rock and blues. A momentary 1969 return to the Guitar Junior monicker -- for Capitol Records, no less -- was produced by Eddie Shuler's son Wayne and focuses on Lonnie Brooks's enduring swamp blues roots (long after he'd jettisoned the style). the LP consists of interpretations of oldies first rendered by Guitar Slim, Lightnin' Slim, Elton Anderson, Larry Davis, Hop Wilson, and Professor Longhair (along with Brooks' own "The Train and the Horse" ).
