From Hound Dog Taylor to Ry Cooder to Derek Trucks, Elmore James, a giant who continues to influence many musicians, goes wild on slide guitar with his band, the Bloomdusters! This is the official reissue of the Crown LP (1960), famous for its "Turnabout Beauty at the Tavern" cover! The Bloom Dusters' sound is a combination of southern and urban/jump sensibilities, and all of the songs are superb! The powerful slide guitar and deep, gospel-rooted vocals are also wonderful. Everything shines with intense brilliance.
