Singer-guitarist Fred McDowell was a giant of the blues who'd spent much of his life pumping gas. Johnny Woods was a scrapper who somehow cobbled out a living between gambling and drinking and playing harp. On these recordings, made in backwoods Mississippi shacks in 1967, the two bluesmen mix with primal authority. McDowell sings about love, hard times, and madness with unbridled passion as he pumps his slide 'n' drone acoustic guitar with rock & roll thrust, and Woods adds hand-muted cries and commentary that's raw as a skinned weasel. Picking out the African cadences of "Red Cross Store" or batting out their local juke-joint "hits" like McDowell's "Shake 'Em On Down," the duo blend the sloppy energy of pure feel with bursts of honed virtuosic precision. The result is blues music that not only cuts to the bone, but slices through it. Whether they're stomping out a powerhouse "John Henry" or slowly tugging every teardrop from a heartbreaker like "I Walked All Night Long," their playing here is as addictive as moonshine. --Ted Drozdowski

Don't analyze it........2005-12-04
If you listen to this trying to figure out if it's good, you've missed the point. I did that on my first couple listens and it sounded like a disjointed mess mixing equal parts repetition and uncoordination. Along with all that, though, is some of the best music I've ever heard.
Hill Country Blues at its best.......2005-01-04
This is music that from its first notes grabs your soul and shakes you. This is the ultimate expression of interplay between harmonica, guitar, and vocals. I find it amazing that Fred and Johnny didn't have to rehearse. I can think of no other album where two musicians exhibit such an understanding of eachother's playing. Everytime I listen to this album I'm sent into a blues-induced trance. Nothing in the world exists except for the wailing harmonica and slide, the rocking rhythm of the drone strings. If this music doesn't make you move your hips, then (in the words of Louis Jordan): Jack, you dead.
The First Of The Great Mississippi Archives..........2004-03-07
This session was recorded in 1965 at George Mitchell's house. Mitchell recorded over 70 hours of tapes during the 60's and 70 of Mississippi Fred and several others. Mama Says I'm Crazy marks the first of a series of sessions Fat Possum plans to release from the Mitchell Archive over the next several years. It's relaxed guitar-and-harmonica hill-country blues, which is part of a dying legacy of musicians. Now that the music is finally getting some attention, the king of Hill-country is finally getting the attention he deserved. He has greatly influenced artists such as T-Model Ford, R. L. Burnside, Solomon Burke, and Junior Kimbrough, and remains the forerunner for the genre. It's eleven soul-wrenching tracks of twelve-bar that will uncontrollably cause you to tap along with the beat. Johnny's harmonica never misses a beat, as he aggressively intertwines with Fred's sliding guitar licks. It's stripped-down and acoustic, and gives you the feeling that you're hitchhiking across the American south with a suitcase in your hand. Mississippi Fred McDowell is essential listening for any aficionado of the blues, and Fat Possum Records is making it possible for blues-lovers everywhere.
Ferocious Mississippi blues.The Real Thing !!!.......2004-02-26
Woooow!!! Recorded 1967 in Como,Ms,here is a real "live" recording by the immense Mississippi Fred McDowell (Jan 12,1904-Jul 3,1972), a true giant of the country blues,and surely one of the best ones.The complicity between McDowell and harp player Johnny Woods is amazing,even if they didn't play together since 8 years at the time of this session.Of course,this record isn't for everybody's ears.If your favorite "blues" musicians are Duke Robillard,Poppa Chubby or Lucky Peterson,then you'll sure have some troubles listening to this music.Here is the real thing,a real,earthy,down home blues;an incredibely fascinating music,an even hypnotic one,recorded in some shack,down in Como, 37 years ago.McDowell is at his most ferocious playing here.He's an atypical blues artist:born at the beginning of the century,he waited until beeing over 60 to start a recording carreer.For some twenty years,he's one of my favorite blues players and singers,with Charley Patton,Bukka White,John Hurt,Jack Owens,Skip James,Henry Townsend and of course Robert Johnson;and,of course also,Robert Pete Williams.
This "field" recording may be Fred McDowell's most authentic album;Johnny Woods' harp playing,which is very present,gives me the same feeling as Big Boy Spires' harp playing with Jack Owens;the empathy between these two legends of Mississippi blues is amazing.Of course,the music isn't sweet and polite;this is the devil's music,and some rough one.This is music at its most violent,urgent,and even vital;here is a very very great blues record,an essential one;it will drive you into McDowell's african,fascinating blues;McDowell's hard swinging,haunting rhythms are at their best.This guy had a magical right hand !!!
As the next blues revival comes,with these movies by Wenders,Scorsese,Eastwood (and I guess his movie will be the best one)and others,I think the time is coming to forget Peterson,Chubby,and many others (including some Fat Possum so called "artists"),and to discover the real founders of the blues (and there are dozens of incredibely talented guys).
Well,anyway,you can listen to what and who you want;but here is a really very important blues album,and it would be a terrible mistake to miss it.
Not one of McDowell's best.......2004-01-15
This is not bad, but it's not one of my favorite Fred McDowell-albums. Too much of Johnny Woods' unvaried freight-train harmonica, and not enough of McDowell's supple slide guitar. Nothing terrible, and a couple of songs are really good, but it's not enough to make this a great album.

This, here, is some good shout!.......2005-02-17
No "leavening sense of swing"? The only thing "preening" around these parts is Frank John Hadley's prose. But don't you keep your head where his is at. Instead take a listen to this crucial moment when the blues morph into somethin' rockin' in the hands of a guy just sittin' around strummin' his guitar with its amp cranked way past what its manufacturer intended while his buddy slaps his drums with a shufflin' beat that defies your toes to start tappin' and done caused one skinny white boy to start his pelvis to twitchin' so that none of us were ever the same again.
Listen, first, to "Shout, Sister, Shout." (Or maybe that should have been "Swing, Sister, Swing.") And think about how accelerated cultural evolution was becoming with the "information technology" of records and juke boxes. Why, in these very same years, Count Basie's sides were extending jazz's New Orleans/Chicago/New York journey to Kansas City where it got back a dose of the heartland and started boppin'. And while part of that was becoming the Bird/Dizzy/Miles/Trane lineage, other parts were becoming Louis Jordan ("Ain't Nobody Here but Us Chickens")...and Johnny Otis ("Willie and the Hand Jive")...and Winonie Harris ("Lovin' Machine")...why, even Nat Cole ("Route 66"). All of these stalwarts were consummate performers.
Not so Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup. Just a guy playin' for himself. But so kinetic. So much channeling through nervy rhythm of what cannot be said through words that don't exist. You can just imagine how intoxicating this music must have been to teens, whether through jukeboxes or heard in the dark late at night over some 50,000 watt AM station booming out from big cities to small towns (Elvis) or indeed broadcast (in the Elvis rendition) from some ship off the eastern coast of England (John, Paul, George and Ringo).
So, check it out. Never mind the sniffing half-praise of Mr. Hadley. Your hips will be glad you did.
One and one is two. Two and two is four........2004-03-29
Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup is probably best known today as the writer and original singer of Elvis Presley's first record, "That's All Right". But during his heyday, Crudup was a fairly popular blues singer in his own right. He rarely performed live, because he suffered from stage fright, but he did make a lot of records that sold pretty well. He played the country blues in a hard-driving style that was quite appealing. Most of his best known songs are included here. I would recommend this CD to all fans of old time blues.
More Than All Right.......2002-10-14
Worth buying if it was just "So Glad You're Mine" 22 times. As it is, the other 21 cuts are the icing on this cake, including the remarkable "I'm Gonna Dig Myself A Hole," the original version of the famous "That's All Right, Mama," and the first popular recording of the standard "Mean Old Frisco." Although occasionally briefly profound, as in "Cool Disposition," Crudup's music is mainly rockin' fun with a beat that will make you bounce and bop, as it did for the people who made these records juke box hits in their day. The tone of his groundbreaking electric guitar achieves what for many is the ideal blues sound, especially effective when accompanied by just drums. Although not considered essential in blues history terms, Arthur Crudup could easily become any blues fan's favorite singer.
