专辑简介

J.W. McClure is a Blues Poet who plays traditional tunes, yodels Jimmie Rodgers and whistles with Duke Ellington and Louis Armstrong. His own award winning songs are recognizable, catchy, with poetic and/or satirical lyrics. "It takes a right on focus of a genre of historical, meaningful folk music, and brings new interpretations that will educate and bring more folks into the world of Jimmie Rodgers. Rarely in jazz, folk, pop, blues music do we get such a true raw, and clean statement as this, and McClure incorporates all these styles and more to bring Jimmie Rodgers to life in a new way." Chris Lunn Ancient Victorys Autumn 2014
