Customer ReviewsStrong Sax And Interesting Lyrics!
Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :6
If you were to search long and hard, you would find very few blues sax players that have released solo recordings. A.C. Reed is one name that may pop up. As of this writing, A.C. is 76 years old and has been playing sax since 1942 when, while working in a Chicago steel mill, he took his first paycheck down to the pawnshop and bought himself his first tenor sax. A.C. was 16 at the time. Over the years A.C. has worked with blues greats including Earl Hooker, Muddy Waters, Buddy Guy, Albert Collins, the Rolling Stones and Eric Clapton. On this disc, A.C. blows like the Windy City he adopted 60 years ago. As an added plus, he is playing with Albert Collins who plays a killer guitar solo on the into to "Broke Music" and "I Got Mad". There is also some great greasy funk included as well on the tunes "Florine" and "2 Women In A Pick Up Truck". Whether A.C. is singing about eating Junk Food, thanking Jenny Craig for sliming down his woman, getting beat up by his woman or hating his job, it doesnt much matter. He plays and sings with a passion rarely heard anymore. Heck, even A.C.s cover of the Doors "Roadhouse" sounds fresh and good.
