Overton Music artist: Russ Green - Stone Cold - New Release Review

Image
 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Stone Cold , from Russ Green , and it's a driving blues rocker. Opening with Lint Redux , you are immediately in the middle of a swampy blues with modern effects. With a firm foot stomp by Felix Pollard on drums and Vic Jackson on bass Russ Green on harmonica and vocals really has the earthy feel. Giles Corey on slide gives the track great grease and Green's harp work is strong.

From the infectious opener, "You Tore My Playhouse Down"--which he adapted from the Ann Peebles' classic "I'm Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down"--to ebullient offerings like "Getaway Place" and "Love Changes Things", he mines a motherlode of deep-blue feeling on B.B. King's "Worried Blues" and goes to church on the gospel-flavored original "Where My Baby Is."
