Love anything this man does. Not only endured before the civil rights movement, but what musician can boast recording a cd with his grandson ... and it becoming a huge seller?

To ma it seems to have some Beck and J.L. Hooker in there also. In any case- quite tasty.

Awesome groove! This song was in a movie called "Puncture", with Chris Evans. Never thought I'd hear it again. Thanks again RP!

Aww, c'mon, you don't have to follow no stereotype.

Oh, Mr. Burnside!  Glory Be!  Yes, you are Up There in The Glory now, and may The Lord rest your righteous soul.   Here is a "Toast" to you!

"Oh Mister B,
Glory Be;
Oh Mister B,
The Glory you see;
Lord Love You and me!"

(Look up the description of "Toast" in re: this artist).

I love that this has a blues-meets-hip-hop vibe. RL was born in 1926 (died in 2005). That's crazy. Awesome stuff for a guy who was around during the depression.

i felt that way for a long time. especially about one specific song that got played too much. but, i just moved this one up from a 1 to a 5.

REAL blues are an acquired taste, and I LOVE this!  (Mr. Burnside was probably playing guitar before I was born ... and I'm a member of AARP.)

EDIT:  He has an album named "A Ass Pocket of Whisky?"  Got to get that!  Sounds like most folks at the college football games around here ...

Whatever works for you, Cy! I'm digging this R. L. The hyper-production makes for a nice change from his classic style.

This is such a cool album.
Lot's of fun stuff on that disc.
I realize it's essentially all remixes, and released after his death,
But it's terrific and totally worth spending the money on.

Something to keep in mind here is that this album/song is a reworking of RLs work.  Someone below made the comment that it sounded like it was produced by Moby.  It wasn't, but at the same time it's not like the real RL albums.  This isn't to say that it's bad or inferior, just that it's different.  If you like this track, do check out the whole album.  I think it's great.

And, if you dig raw, gritty blues, then definitely check out other RL albums.   Burnside on Burnside, Ass Pocket of Whiskey, &tc.  Echoing below, RL was the real deal.
