- blues goblins: blues goblins
(2002, cd, usa, off records off 997) - featuring Stanley Jason Zappa
In 2002, the Blues Goblins released a superb album. It's some sort of blues covers album, but with a very raw and sometimes even psychedelic twist.
"Blues Goblins", the album, collects early 20th century blues songs by Skip James, Muddy Waters, Leadbelly, Charlier Patton, Howlin' Wolf, ... and gives them a contemporary touch.
Really impressive.
Cherry on the pie is Stanley Jason Zappa's guest appearance. SJZ blows his horn on two of the tracks. My favorite track is 'Rollin & Tumblin'. 8 minutes of genius madness: one of the stereo channels runs a bit behind; you get a superb guitar solo on top; and a breathtaking multi-layered saxophone improvisation right behind it.
THIS IS SUPERB!!
21st century blues.
gracias, voy a escucharlo
