Description
Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown, who turned 80 in April, has had a distinguished career spanning more than a half a century. Although many think of him solely as a bluesman, Brown is much more than that. His music spans blues, jazz, swing, country, old-timey and Cajun. His recording career began 50 years ago, and he has recorded and toured ever since. He won a Grammy in 1982, countless WC Handy awards and is the recipient of the 1998 Rhythm & Blues Foundation Pioneer Award. This new album was recorded live and in the studio under the guidance of Gatemouth's longtime manager and producer, Jim Bateman. The material reflects a Gatemouth live show and includes jazzy covers of "Satin Doll" and Joe Zawinal's "Mercy, Mercy, Mercy", country honk-tonkers "Tennessee Blues" and "Dark End Of The Hallway", blues workouts "Jumpin' The Blues" and "The Drifter", plus the extended crowd pleaser, "Unchained Melody". Other tracks are "Soft Wind", "For Now So Long" and "Six Levels Below Plant Life".
