Bobby Rush lays aside his band, his backing singers and his most electrifying soul to bring us a fully acoustic album performed only with his voice, his acoustic guitar and harmonica, with the only aim to pay homage to deep Mississippi blues, a traditional music coming from his ancestors Although he was born in Louisiana, his mother’s family came from Mississippi area and, during the 50’s, Bobby travelled often to the Delta looking for his roots, so he finally settled in Jackson in 1983 where he now lives Aged eighty-six, Bobby still keeps a powerful enviable strength and expressiveness that become evident as the minutes of the eleven songs that round up this fantastic really genuine down-home blues album go on Six songs come from artists like Skip James, Chester Burnett, Junior Parker, Willie Dixon, Sonny Boy Williamson or Robert Johnson and the remaining five are Rush’s own compositions As Bobby says, the album does not include all the songs he would have loved to record, especially some by Jimmy Reed, John Lee Hooker, Son House or BB King, but the selected ones are beautiful pearls of the most intense real deep south blues, performed with a goof dose of feeling and honesty
