Title: an album you just gotta hear !
Product review: R.L. Burnside - Wish I Was In Heaven Sitting Down, Fat Possum Records (2000)Along with Mississippi Fred McDowell, R.L. Burnside was an old time blues musician that as far as I knew was long ago gone from Chicago Blues Scene . Then to my surprise I heard a few news songs from him and was so intrigued that I started to track down his later albums. "Wish I Was In Heaven Sitting Down" takes the Blues into totally new territory and has managed to break new boundaries here on this album. I think Bob will absolutely love this album with it's wild mix of scratch , guitar, harmonica and deep blues vocals of a master. Tracks like "got messed up" completely won me over and this album is an absolute gem. a bit of a cliche i suppose but i highly recommended album to you and you need to hear this one before YOU die !
