Description
Lightnin' Hopkins w Sonny Terry - Last Night Blues
Year: 1960 Label: OJC (1992) Total time: 36:24 Bitrate: 320 kbps Outside of Blind Lemon Jefferson, Lightnin' Hopkins may be Texas's most distinctive and influential blues export. His easy, fluid fingerpicking and witty, extemporaneous storytelling are always a delight, and his performances on LAST NIGHT BLUES are no exception. The album is spare and acoustic, with Hopkins's voice and guitar accompanied by minimal percussion and Sonny Terry's harmonica.Terry's contributions really add a lot to these tunes, threading a high, lonesome whine on the downtempo tunes and a chugging, propulsive shuffle on the faster ones. Hopkins is, of course, one of the kings of the blues boogie, but he's equally compelling on the slow blues, and he never missteps throughout this fine set. All told, this dynamite disc represents what the blues should be: stripped-down, soulful, and full of truth. ~ Product Infomation (oldies.com) "...there's a relaxed intimacy and trust here born of musicians sharing a similar vision and experience in the blues....lyrically, Hopkins' ability to poetically improvise without noticeable limits keeps each song interesting..." ~ Living Blues - Jan/Feb 93, pp.84-85 Personnel: Lightnin' Hopkins (Guitar and Vocals) Sonny Terry (Harmonica and Vocal) Leonard Gaskin (Double Bass) Belton Evans (Drums) Lightnin' Hopkins w Sonny Terry - Last Night Blues Tracks: 01 Rocky Mountain (Lightnin' Hopkins) 4:57 02 Cot to Move Your Baby (Lightnin' Hopkins) 4:01 03 So Sorry to Leave Me (Lightnin' Hopkins) 4:21 04 Take the Trip With Me (Lightnin' Hopkins) 5:04 05 Last Night Blues (Lightnin' Hopkins) 5:16 06 Lightnin's Stroke (Lightnin' Hopkins) 4:55 07 Hard to Love a Woman (Lightnin' Hopkins) 4:00 08 Conversation Blues (Lightnin' Hopkins/Sonny Terry) 3:50 Related Torrents
