Our Take
Our Take
BLIND WILLIE MCTELL's "Kill It / Kid - The Collection" on blue vinyl is a treasure trove of bluesy goodness, wrapped up in the hazy nostalgia of days gone by. MCTELL's soulful voice cuts through the crackle of the record like a knife through butter, transporting you to a smoky juke joint on the Mississippi Delta.
The collection features some of MCTELL's most iconic tracks, including the haunting "Broke Down Engine Blues" and the foot-stomping "Cold Winter Day." Each song is a testament to MCTELL's mastery of the blues, with his intricate guitar work and emotive vocals painting a vivid picture of a bygone era.
But it's not all melancholy ballads and heart-wrenching laments on this album. Tracks like "Razor Ball" inject a healthy dose of humor and irreverence into the mix, showcasing MCTELL's playful side and proving that even the blues can be fun.
Overall, "Kill It / Kid - The Collection" is a must-have for any serious blues aficionado. The raw emotion and virtuosity on display here are a testament to BLIND WILLIE MCTELL's enduring legacy, and this blue vinyl edition is the perfect way to experience his music in all its crackling glory. So grab a glass of whiskey, dim the lights, and let MCTELL's soulful sounds wash over you like a warm, comforting blanket. You won't be disappointed.

About the artist
Blind Willie McTell
Blind Willie McTell, the enigmatic blues musician from Georgia, is one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. With a distinctive fingerpicking style and soulful voice, McTell's music has captivated audiences for decades. Born in 1898, McTell began his musical career at a young age, performing on street corners and in juke joints across the South. His lyrics often reflected the struggles of African Americans in the Jim Crow era, earning him a reputation as a powerful storyteller. McTell's most famous song, "Statesboro Blues," is a blues standard that has been covered by countless artists, including The Allman Brothers Band. His ability to blend traditional blues with elements of folk and country music set him apart from his peers and cemented his legacy in the music industry. Despite his immense talent, McTell never achieved mainstream success during his lifetime. However, his influence can be heard in the work of artists such as Bob Dylan, who paid tribute to McTell in his song "Blind Willie McTell." McTell's music continues to resonate with listeners today, with his recordings being reissued and celebrated by a new generation of fans. His impact on the blues genre cannot be understated, and his legacy lives on through his timeless music. Blind Willie McTell may have been blind, but his music speaks volumes.
