Where It's At
The threesome apparently view the singing and playing of blues as a moral activity. There's a stately, sanctified quality to the ascents and slides of their vocals, the subtle but sure drive of their music, and their interpretation of lyrics. One senses a spiritual purification in progress during, for example, Brother Wendell's "The Love You Save" and Ray Charles's "Drown in My Own Tears."-- © Frank John Hadley 1993--From Grove Press Guide to Blues on CD
