Slim Fatz | Hard Time Ago
If you're a true fan of blues music, Slim Fatz is definitely worth a listen.
CD, Second Heaven
Tekst: Maurice Dielemans
Publicatiedatum: 28 januari 2002
Welcome to the swamps and juke joints of Mississippi. Slim Fatz' 'Hard Time Ago' is today's resurrection of the deep Southern blues from the early Twenties. Take a listen to the first few seconds of the opening track, breathtaking as it is, 'Fly Away' is about as haunting as it gets. Superior playing of the acoustic guitar to the rhythm of men working on the chain gang and picking cotton, Slim Fatz slowly whispers, moans, and shouts his way through all twelve inspiring songs on 'Hard Time Ago'. At times, his howling voice captures the spirit of the chilling loneliness of Tom Waits, such as in songs as 'Grieve' and 'Friday Nite'. However, 'Hard Time Ago' is nothing but a pure traditional blues recording. Both lyrically and musically, Slim Fatz stays true to the old-time spirit of the unforgettable legendary blues pioneers, such as Sonny Boy Williamson, Lightnin' Hopkins, and the mysterious Robert Johnson. If you're a true fan of blues music, Slim Fatz is definitely worth a listen.
