Solo Acoustic Tracks on Metallic Gold Vinyl LP!
Features Nine Newly Written Originals!
TAS Rated 4.5/5 Music, 4/5 Sonics in the July/August 2024 Issue of The Absolute Sound!
Tinsley Ellis unplugs and channels his masterful guitar skills and soul-baring vocals into a bracing collection of solo acoustic tracks steeped in the traditions of Muddy Waters, Skip James, Son House, Robert Johnson and even Leo Kottke. Nine newly-written originals sit alongside reverent, yet spirited, versions of House's "Death Letter Blues," Willie Dixon's "Don't Go No Further" and Kottke's "Sailor's Grave On The Prairie."
An exciting, emotional guitarist and a strong, evocative songwriter...slow-burning, satisfying blues
This album is such a high-water mark in Ellis' catalog it will very likely stand the test of time alongside other blues classics.
