Music reviews of On Stage Tonight: Baldry's OutMusic Review: Impersonate Long John and you got a carreer ahead of you
Not knowing much about Long John Baldry, I took a chance when buying this CD. Here's my tip: make sure you've heard a lot of blues (not just the famous classics) before buying a blues CD. Like so many other Blues favorites Baldry's best songs seem so much un-like his other tunes. They are up-beat and have great sing-along lyrics. However, most of the other stuff on BALDRY'S OUT is repetitive, somewhat off-key, and not catchy at all. It's hard to believe since Baldry's voice is so damn powerful and soul-touching. Maybe that's because most of the songs on the album do what the blues do: utilize lots of instruments and use up a lot of time trying lots of things with them. And that's just not what this non-blues fanatic craves. On the up-side Baldry strikes a cord with "It Ain't Easy," and "Midnight in New Orleans," two amazing hits that make great use of lyrics, backround vocals, and, of course, Baldry's voice. For instance there are the lines- "It Ain't Easy to go ahead when.. you're.. going down!!!", and " Driving down Highway 61, thinking Brother Johnson you are the one..." Overall, these two songs, along with parts of "Stormy Monday Blues," and the infamous 9+ minute "Don't Try To Lay No Boogie Woogie On The King of Rock And Roll" make this CD worthwile. And you gotta love that voice...even when singing German to the Hamburg audience.
