The stage of Tennessee jam band festival Bonnaroo is an unlikely setting for the year's most important blues recording, but young firebrands North Mississippi Allstars pulled off a creative coup in June of 2004 with their Hill Country Revue. The concert teamed patriarch R.L. Burnside and his guitarist and rapper sons, the late Othar Turner's fife and drum band, the Black Crowes' Chris Robinson, and eccentric producer-pianist Jim Dickinson, the father of Allstars Luther and Cody Dickinson, with the wiry trio. The historic results handily blend all the racial, geographic, and cultural elements of the genre with adventurous musicality. Burnside is present more for his inspiration than his musical contribution. But his sons carry on the tradition while pushing its borders into hip-hop and six-string psychedelia. If there's a star here, though, it's guitarist Luther Dickinson, who playfully quotes Duane Allman, Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, and the elder Burnside, and then adds a level of tonal and textural exploration to his performance that makes him a one-man defibrillator for the genre--insurance that the heart of the blues will keep pumping into the future. --Ted Drozdowski

5 out of 5 stars Great cd! .......2006-09-08

Love the NM Allstars and Bonnaroo was a great show! Listen to this cd all the time!

4 out of 5 stars Holy Crap This Thing Is Good.......2006-06-29

I wanted to like the North Mississippi Allstars, they seemed to have all the makings of a great band, southern, blues rooted, and future minded, but their Cds just weren't ringing my bell. I had just about given up on them when SIRIUS starting playing cuts from this CD on the Jam_On channel. Since I liked what I was hearing, I decided to give these guys one more chance. Boy am I glad I did!!! This CD lit a fire under me like nothing had done since I first heard Fillmore East.

Similar to Fillmore East, this concert recording captures a band out to bridge the space between the blues of the past with current trends. The first two tunes "Shake 'Em On Down" and "Po Black Maddie>Skinny Woman>Po Black Maddie" take no prisoners and come charging right out of the gate laying down some serious blues that not only kicks some serious butt, but also shake some serious butt also. Once things get going they don't stop either.

5 out of 5 stars Great Hill Country Blues.......2005-12-07

I disagree about the sound quality. This is HILL COUNTRY BLues! It's sounds like that. This is a great example of that music style and it's a joy to listen to. I like kicking back to these guys - feels like a back porch on a summer night. It's earthy and REAL, not some sound studio contrived CD. Unfortunately, today most people are used the the big studio productions.

5 out of 5 stars Incredible Album.......2005-05-09

Wow. This album is one of my favorite blues albums. I saw the Allstars live with The Black Crowes and that is what turned me onto them. I think they are one of the most brilliant and true blues-based bands out today. I would reccomend this album to anyone who wants to hear great music.

1 out of 5 stars disappointing.......2005-01-30

This is a live recording and a very poor one. One of the worse sounding CDs I have - flat, boomy bass, poor highs, if any, etc.

The music is monotone, constant beating on the drums, all tunes sound the same, perhaps one of the reasons is the poor sound quality. If you are familiar with the band, then you know what you are buying. If you like to experiment like me, and are considering this CD because of the editor's recommendation, think again.

    Product Description

    From the D.C area artist hailed by The Washington Post as "a promising newcomer who's drawn comparisons to Bonnie Raitt" comes a follow-up release to her award-winning debut album, "Bendin' the Blues." Fans of Mason's electric blues-rock guitar work may be surprised to hear her "go acoustic," but those who have seen her as a solo opening act for Taj Mahal, Don McLean and other legends already know that she is equally at home in an acoustic setting. This album was nominated for the cross-genre “Album of the Year” award and won the Washington Area Music Association's 2001 "Best Blues Recording" award.

    "Lonesome Is I," titled after the first line of the Mississippi John Hurt waltz, "Nobody Cares for Me," covers Mason's favorite acoustic country blues songs, plus a couple she penned herself. In addition to Hurt, Mason interprets the songs of blues legends Mance Lipscomb, Robert Johnson, Reverend Robert Wilkins and Blind Willie McTell. "Lonesome Is I" was recorded by award-winning producer and engineer Chris Biondo, known for his work with the late Eva Cassidy.

    BLUES REVUE MAGAZINE (Hal Horowitz): "Melanie Mason's second album's title is an accurate description of the poignant songs within. Mason's supple guitar work is exemplary throughout. She slides and picks with an obvious understanding of the desolate qualities that make this music so timeless. 'Lonesome Is I' is a beautifully rendered album that expresses the sorrow, pain and the hopelessness long-gone bluesmen experienced."

    1 out of 5 stars Straight Off the Old Player Piano Roll!.......2003-02-27

    Buyer beware. I purchased the CD anticipating interpretive versions of his most famous pieces played by Gershwin himself. But instead, the CD consists of reproduced player piano rolls--very mechanical, no change in tempo, and just plain irritating to listen to, after the novelty of the first track wears off. I looked back at the product detail to see if I had missed the mention of "player piano versions", but found none. Big disappointment.

    4 out of 5 stars Amiable and entertaining.......2004-12-07

    Copperheads play a delightful stew of Americana and end up making it sound sort of original. It's not ground breaking or anything but it is catchy and a delightful listen. They play a mixture of honky tonk lite, country rock, gospel, and roadhouse blues.

    There is a definite early 70s AM radio vibe going on here. They kind of remind me of a country-ish Three Dog Night on occasion, due in part to using three lead singers.

    I like the ballads better than the faster songs. Sweet Azalea is probably the highlight, although She Lives In Dallas is pretty good too. They also do a nice job on the Eurythmics Here Comes The Rain Again.

    Overall, not bad. It is one of those discs that is instantly likeable, but may not have enough meat for heavy multiple listenings. Still, it is a release you'll likely want to play every month or so.

    4 out of 5 stars A Good Blues Album.......2004-10-13

    I really enjoy listening to this album. If you can find it, it is well worth your money. These guys are a more local band from the Twin Cities. If you love blues music, you should definitelly check them out.

    5 out of 5 stars One Man Wrecking Crew!.......2006-12-07

    Against the odds, wonderful traditional players continue to turn up. K. M. Williams is a one-man wrecking crew, churning out driving rhythms and keening bottleneck leads on his guitar and singing in a creek-bed-dry voice. Williams doesn't always get the falsetto he reaches for, but that intensifies the feeling he puts into these country blues and spirituals. This is great raw stuff!!! The Reverend of Texas Country Blues is highly recommended.
