good stuff, lousy title (it's dirt cheap, too),
By
This review is from: V2 Not The Same Old Blues Crap (Audio CD)
Actually, this is the same old blues...; the "purists" who run the label either don't know it or won't admit it. This sort of purist nonsense is as old as the music but whenever another generation comes along there's another spasm of it. As for the selections, this is really fine music, as varied as you could possibly want. Even some greasy old soul that somebody probably smokes cigars to while they're swilling beer (just to mention a couple seemingly proscribed activities mentioned in the liner notes). But this label records stuff Alligator never did, right? Way wrong; Hound Dog Taylor was as funky as any of this. Filter out all the Fat Possum trademark noise and leave that to the college students to whom it matters. This is a very fine collection of blues that any blues fan will thoroughly enjoy. Maybe a slight lean toward the rural and the rocky but so what?

Fat Possum Primer,
By Pablo Parks "Pablo" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: V2 Not The Same Old Blues Crap (Audio CD)
Outstanding sampler from Nortern Mississippi Hill Country Blues label Fat Possum. Much prefer this sampler to the first one. This has that gritty country blues feel with many songs feeling like they were recorded in a leaky basement(and many were). Standouts are the two RL Burnside tracks: "Goin down South" is a staple of his music and the version included of "Walkin Blues" is top notch. The previously unreleased "I Feel Good Again" by Junior Kimbrough and Charlie Feathers is worth more than the low 4.99 price to buy this. The Asie Payton tracks are both stunners and Paul Wine Jones and Super Chikan add some diversity in style with there numbers.

Surprise !,
By Stranger "Stranger" - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: V2 Not The Same Old Blues Crap (Audio CD)
Most albums with "kitchey" titles are not too good. This one is an exception. If you have any interest in the hill-country style of Mississippi, then this is a great sampler. I was turned on to this sound by the North Mississippi AllStars, and wanted to hear more. Some of these artists are not around any more, so soak it up while you can.
