Bluesology: Ally Venable, Duke Robillard, Alabama Slim and The Hitman Blues Band Get the latest tip-top blues with releases from Ally Venable, Duke Robillard, Alabama Slim and The Hitman Blues Band. Author: By Mike Greenblatt She’s so cute. How could she play such ball-busting guitar? Obviously, her two attributes are not diametrically opposed. Ally Venable sings up a storm, writes her own material, and is said to be an onstage blockbuster. At 21, this Texas Tornado is on her fourth album. (Ruf Records) picks up where 2019’s Texas Honey left off. Produced by Jim Gaines (Stevie Ray Vaughan, Huey Lewis & The News, Santana, Steve Miller Band), it’s filled with blistering riffs and hot guest shots by Kenny Wayne Shepherd and Devon Allman. The highlight has to be her “Hateful Blues,” spit-sung with a clenched fist. And how cool is her pick of the Bill Withers classic “Use Me”? She not only nails it but adds her style of sass. As Little Willi ....
When I saw this CD’s primitive package and reading Alabama Slim’s bio, I thought someone was perpetrating hoax, creating the Sidd Finch [fictional baseball player] of the blues community. Come on, it’s 2021, and you’re telling us from out of the blue comes a relic blues guitar player from Klan country playing a style of music that originated on 78 r.p.m.s? Well, Alabama Slim is authentic and living here in New Orleans, and he’s not half bad. In fact, along with his buddy/cousin Little Freddie King (heard here on “Freddie’s Voodoo Boogie”), Slim is one of the last practitioners of raw juke-joint blues. The rawness here could be compared to Juke Boy Bonner, Junior Kimbrough and R.L. Burnside. Influences from Muddy, Wolf and Hooker are clearly evident. This is evident on “Rock Me Baby,” “Someday Baby” and “Down In the Bottom,” which are loosely translated from the originals. Many of the tracks stay entirely on one chord. Slim and the small band often jump ....
Alabama Slim – The Parlor (Cornelius Chapel): “The story of a bluesman getting discovered late in life is one that has repeated itself a handful of times over the last few decades. There is a sadness to this story in the fact that talented musicians can toil away most of their life without having their music ever heard and appreciated by anyone outside of their immediate community. But there is also a triumph, a redemption of sorts that comes from this music finally reaching grateful listeners around the world. While visiting bluesman Little Freddie King in New Orleans, Music Maker Relief Foundation founder and president Tim Duffy met his cousin Alabama Slim, born Milton Frazier in Vance, Alabama on March 29, 1939. King and Slim often played together, with King’s scorching guitar backing Slim’s deep and smooth vocals that bring to mind the cool, flowing singing of John Lee Hooker…. In the summer of 2019, Slim and King – along with drummer Ardie Dean – finally ....
Along with his upcoming 82nd birthday, New Orleans blues artist Milton Frazier has something else to celebrate. Frazier the singer, guitarist and songwriter known as Alabama Slim is releasing his third album, The Parlor, today. Accompanied by his cousin, Little Freddie King “Fread Eugene Martin,” and producer-drummer Ardie Dean, he recorded the project in four hours. “We went in and laid it down,” Frazier said of his unfussy session at the Parlor Recording Studio. “As a matter of fact, me and Freddie, we’re just ready, man, because that’s my thing.” You can stream the premiere below. The album is available for purchase here. ....
