I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Ridin' The Blinds, from Hudspeth and Taylor and it's an excellent new interpretation of early Mississippi Delta Blues. Opening with Poor Boy Long Ways from Home Jaisson Taylor on vocal and percussion and Brandon Hudspeth on guitar take this traditional tune and retain the best of it's vintage sound with modern style. Taylor has a strong voice and Hudspeth's slide work is solid. Nice opener. Otto Virgial's Little Girl In Rome has great energy with electrifying slide work by Hudspeth. One of my favorite tracks on the release is Willie Borum's Lonesome Home Blues with excellent vocal power by Taylor and driving guitar work by Hudspeth. Excellent. Waters' I Can't Be Satisfied kicks the set into up tempo mode and the duo is really jamming. With Morganfield trademark slide styling and super vocals, this is a great track. Wrapping the release is Big Bill Broonzy's Hey Hey with it's country style finger picking styling by Hudspeth. A casual but solid closer for a cool release.
