BRYAN LEE
PLAY ONE FOR ME
2013-10-13
Veteran New Orleans blues man
Bryan Lee spreads his wings for the most soulful release of his career. Joined by the Fabulous T-Birds Kim Wilson and
guitarist Johnny Moller as well as Chicago Blues Man Willie Henderson arranging
a seven piece horn section and four piece string section Play On For Me is definitely the most diverse
disc this sixty eight year old veteran has ever released. The opening track
Aretha {Sing One For Me} is a great cover track about a relationship gone bad
and looking for healing in an a Aretha Franklin song. "It's Too Bad"
the Freddie King standard as well as the Willie Dixon classic
"Evil" and Bryan's original
"Poison" are the most pure and traditional sounding blues found on
this disc. Bryans
voice has never sounded better, his guitar has taken on certain BB King Lucille
quality's and this is one of the best blues releases of 2013.
