Our Take

Kim Wilson's "Blues And Boogie Vol. 1" is a retro romp through the smoky, dimly-lit juke joints of yesteryear. Wilson, best known as the frontman of The Fabulous Thunderbirds, has assembled a crack team of musicians to bring his vision of classic blues and boogie to life.

From the opening track "Learn To Treat Me Right", Wilson's harmonica wails and moans with a raw intensity that would make Howlin' Wolf proud. The band grooves with a tightness that can only come from years of playing together, and each member gets their chance to shine.

Songs like "Same Old Blues" and "Ninety-Nine" showcase Wilson's songwriting chops, with lyrics that speak to the universal themes of heartache and redemption. The standout track, however, has to be "Mean Old Frisco", a rollicking number that will have you tapping your toes and reaching for a bottle of whiskey.

Wilson's vocals are weathered and soulful, carrying the weight of years of hard living and heartbreak. He may not have the flash and swagger of some of his contemporaries, but what he lacks in showmanship he more than makes up for in authenticity.

"Blues And Boogie Vol. 1" is a testament to the enduring power of the blues, and proves that Kim Wilson is still a force to be reckoned with in the world of American roots music. So pour yourself a drink, turn up the volume, and let the music wash over you like a warm summer breeze.
