Intimate Blues Record on Vinyl LP!
Remastered by Multiple Grammy® Winner Michael Graves!
Vinyl Mastering by Jeff Powell!
One of Candid's historic blues releases, Memphis Slim, U.S.A. finds the Blues Hall of Fame inductee in a rare, relaxed setting with two close friends and fellow blues icons, Jazz Gillum and Arbee Stidham. The intimacy - from their loose interplay and improvisation to the eerie realism of the recording - is palpable and feels more like an invitation to their inner circle than a commercial release.
Grammy® winner Michael Graves' sensitive remastering brings Memphis Slim, U.S.A. to life, letting listeners in as the piano legend and his buddies offer a musical history of the blues from its Southern juke-joint roots up to its Chicago-style move toward R&B.
Memphis Slim, U.S.A. is an essential document that Candid is proud to bring back to the blues canon.
