Hi-Fi News 2019 Album Choice selection for Year's Best LPs!

Hi-Fi News June 2019 Album Choice selection!

"This superb reissue is a fitting tribute to the finest purveyor ever of 'Swamp Rock,' White having passed late last year. Although best known for composing the Elvis hit 'Polk Salad Annie,' and 'Rainy Night In Georgia,' a smash for Brook Benton in 1970, his own LPs were also something special. Three seconds into this 1973 release and your jaw will drop: the most melodic, tactile lower registers this side of a Kodo album. Every composition mixes wit, wisdom and winsomeness, with musicianship of the highest order — it was recorded in Nashville with sidemen including David Briggs and Norbert Putnam. Above it all, though, is a voice so textured and deep that it makes J.J. Cale sound like Klaus Nomi." — Sound Quality: 95% — Ken Kessler, Hi Fi News, June 2019

"I have been tempted to buy a repress of this title ... I'm pleased I waited, very pleased! And I can stop looking for a quality used original too. This is one of those intimate albums that gets better the later in the day you happen to sit with it; I know it'll get even better with a glass of wine on a warm summer evening too. Kevin Gray mastered, nothing else need be said. ... I'm not so sure about this not being a top seller; anyone who enjoys music would be a fool to miss out on this. With only 1,000 pressed initially it may well be that it fulfills that prophesy, so get it while you can. I hope demand results in another pressing run. ... If you "do" 45 RPM cuts, what are you waiting for? You really can't go wrong or will regret picking this one up." — Gordon Johnson, Jimpress
