Eddy Clearwater Two x Nine(blues)(flac)[rogerc] torrent

EDDY CLEARWATER TWO x NINE
Label: New Rose Records
Format: Flac


Recorded originally for Clearwater\'s own Cleartone label and later leased to Ron Bartolucci\'s Baron imprint, these late-\'70s sides were potent indicators of his maturing blues style. These weren\'t homemade sessions; all-star sidemen include drummer Casey Jones, guitarist Jimmy Johnson, and saxist Abb Locke. The title cut is a blistering Chuck Berry-styled rocker, \"Came Up the Hard Way\" displays a firm grasp of the West Side sound, and \"A Little Bit of Blues, A Little Bit of Rock & Roll\" utilizes a funky groove to foot-stomping advantage.
