Our Take

MEMPHIS SLIM's "In Paris" is a delightful romp through the streets of the City of Light, bringing a touch of Southern charm to the French capital. Slim's signature blend of blues and boogie-woogie is on full display here, with his gravelly voice and nimble fingers working their magic on the keys.

From the rollicking opener "Paris Boogie" to the soulful ballad "Nobody Loves Me," MEMPHIS SLIM takes listeners on a journey through the highs and lows of love and life. The infectious energy of tracks like "Beer Drinking Woman" will have you tapping your feet and reaching for another pint, while the melancholy strains of "Mother Earth" will tug at your heartstrings.

The album's production is top-notch, with every note and nuance crystal clear and perfectly balanced. The band backing MEMPHIS SLIM is tight and groovy, providing the perfect backdrop for his piano wizardry.

In a world overrun with cookie-cutter pop stars and auto-tuned mediocrity, MEMPHIS SLIM is a breath of fresh air. His timeless sound and genuine passion for music shine through on every track, reminding us of the enduring power of the blues.

So grab a glass of wine, dim the lights, and let MEMPHIS SLIM take you on a musical journey through the streets of Paris. You won't regret it.
