Editorial Review: Amazon.com: For their latest, Akron, Ohio duo The Black Keys have brought forth an EP of six songs by Junior Kimbrough. This is no mere dalliance; the late elder Mississippi blues musician was a powerful influence on guitarist Dan Auerbach and drummer Patrick Carney. Their three previous albums, full of dusty grooves and simple but impassioned dynamics, would have found strong rapport with Kimbrough, who unfortunately died before they could ever meet. However, his widow, Mildred gives her passionate endorsement for these performances in the form of a short phone message that appears at the end of the disc. Among the highpoints is "Meet Me in the City," which positively shimmers as the plaintive vocal soars over a virato-ed guitar. The Black Keys, besides paying their heartfelt respects, also demonstrate the breadth and durability of Kimbrough's music. --David Greenberger Customer Reviews

 Rating: - chula homai love this kind of music and was very happy to find in on amazon. my son introduced me to the black keys, and i love to play it at work. Rating: - The right directionI am a fan of the Black Keys, I can't seem to move on to anything else. Everytime I try something else, I am back to the Keys before long. The Big Come Up grabbed me and sucked me in, no mediocre songs, a true 5 star album. I went through the other albums and though i have enjoyed them all Chulahoma is special. The newest album Attack & Release is supposed to be a new direction with Danger Mouse production influences throughout. That album is a new interesting direction, but good? More time will tell. It is for sure that the direction Chulahoma took was spot on. A groovey bluesy achingly immaculate tribute to an underground legend in Junior Kimbrough. Oh if only it had been a full album, alas six brilliant songs to make any blues ...

I will never forget the first time I heard him, on Robert Mugge's amazing documentary, Deep Blues. At the time Mugge filmed him in 1990 there was no such thing as a Junior Kimbrough album, although Junior was already 60 at the time. I could not understand how this unique genius had been overlooked for so long. I had never heard the term before, but I started calling Juniour Kimbrough's music "Trance Blues." That's what it did to me: put me in a trance. That's what it did to Dan, and that's what this album will do to you if you let it. With Junior as his muse, it must ...

If this was vinyl I'd be playing the grooves off of this. Rating: - Short but incredibly powerfulThe Keys really get down to Kimbrough's no-nonsense no-prisoners style. I can listen to this EP over and over get something new out of it each time. |
