Our Take

WYNONIE HARRIS Blow Your Brains Out Greatest Jukebox Hits & Dancefloor Favourites is a rollicking romp through the golden age of rhythm and blues. Harris, the king of uptempo jump blues, delivers one infectious track after another, sure to get even the most stoic listener tapping their toes and shaking their hips.

From the raucous opener "Good Rockin' Tonight" to the soulful closer "Bloodshot Eyes," Harris' swagger and charisma shine through on every track. His distinctive voice, equal parts raw and smooth, cuts through the crackling guitars and bright horns like a hot knife through butter.

Standout tracks include the electric "All She Wants to Do is Rock," guaranteed to get even the most reluctant wallflower out on the dancefloor, and the cheeky "I Like My Baby's Pudding," a playful ode to Harris' preferred dessert (and possibly innuendo? You decide).

While some tracks can feel a bit repetitive in their structure, there's no denying the infectious energy that permeates the entire album. Harris' ability to blend the grit and grind of the blues with the rollicking energy of early rock and roll is a testament to his enduring influence on the genre.

So go ahead, crank up the volume, pour yourself a stiff drink, and let WYNONIE HARRIS Blow Your Brains Out take you on a wild ride through the juke joints and dancehalls of yesteryear. It's a musical experience not to be missed.
