Our Take

Lowell Fulson's "The Final Kent Years" is a bluesy journey through the last chapter of the legendary musician's career. From the moment you press play, you're transported to a smoky dive bar in the deep south, where Fulson's gravelly voice and soulful guitar licks reign supreme.

The album kicks off with the gritty and groovy "Black Nights," setting the tone for what's to come. Fulson's raw emotions shine through on tracks like "Motherless Child" and "Hung Down Head," proving that even in his final years, he could still deliver a knockout performance.

But it's not all doom and gloom on "The Final Kent Years." Fulson injects a sense of fun and playfulness into tracks like "Man on the Run" and "Cheating Woman," showing that he still had plenty of life left in him.

Overall, "The Final Kent Years" is a fitting swan song for a blues legend. Fulson's passion and talent are on full display, and it's clear that even in his later years, he still had plenty to offer. So grab a glass of bourbon, dim the lights, and let Lowell Fulson take you on one last musical journey. You won't be disappointed.
