Our Take

David Murray and Saul Williams team up on "Blues For Memo," a sonic journey that takes listeners on a rollercoaster ride through the world of blues and spoken word poetry. The album kicks off with the track "Memo's Blues," a hauntingly beautiful tribute to the legendary Memo Gonzalez, setting the tone for what's to come.

Murray's soulful saxophone melds effortlessly with Williams' powerful spoken word vocals, creating a mesmerising combination that is both captivating and thought-provoking. The duo's chemistry is undeniable, with each track showcasing their musical prowess and storytelling abilities.

From the funky grooves of "I Need To Sing," to the melancholic melodies of "The Blue Griffin," Murray and Williams take listeners on a musical journey that is as diverse as it is engaging. The standout track "Blues for Clarissa" sees Williams deliver a heartfelt performance, while Murray's saxophone weaves a soul-stirring melody that lingers long after the song is over.

"Blues For Memo" is a testament to the power of collaboration, with Murray and Williams pushing each other to new heights and creating a truly unique listening experience. This album is a must-listen for music lovers looking for something fresh, exciting, and soulful. So grab your headphones, sit back, and let the blues wash over you in all its glory.
