Our Take

Ah, Washboard Sam, the man with more rhythm in his washboard than most musicians have in their entire bodies. This collection delves deep into the golden years of his career, from 1935 to 1953, offering a glimpse into the world of early blues and boogie-woogie.

From the first track, you can practically feel the energy emanating from Sam's washboard as he expertly accompanies his own soulful vocals. The rawness and authenticity of his music is a refreshing departure from the over-produced and formulaic sounds of modern music.

Tracks like "Diggin' My Potatoes" and "Who Pumped The Wind In My Doughnut" showcase Sam's playful and humorous side, while "She Belongs To The Devil" delves into darker themes with hauntingly beautiful melodies.

Throughout the collection, Sam's charisma and passion for music shines through, making it impossible not to tap your feet and sway along to the infectious beats. His innovative use of the washboard as a musical instrument is truly ahead of its time, paving the way for future generations of musicians to explore new sounds and techniques.

In a world filled with endless musical options, The Washboard Sam Collection stands out as a timeless masterpiece that deserves a spot in every music lover's collection. So grab yourself a copy, pour yourself a glass of whiskey, and let Washboard Sam transport you to a bygone era of music magic. You won't regret it. Trust me.
