Mississippi fred Mcdowell - I do not play no r’n’r
Have you heard this? It’s recorded in 1969, and to my very personal ears it sounds very close to all the stuff of the stones circa late 60’s. I’d love to know the opininion of all the guitar experts in this board. The guitar tone, that chopping rhythm...to me THAT’s the sound. Many of the songs from this album (“61 Highway”, “Good morning little schoolgirl”...) would have fit perfectly in albums like Let it bleed or Exile (Should I say viceversa?). Don’t you think that not only the covers ( You Gotta Move) but the intros of “Stop breaking down” or “Ventilator blues” maybe are inspired by albums like that?
Does any of you agree? Have you ever feel this while listening to any other non-stones music?
You are lucky! Mine is a 2CD reissue with some alternate takes. In some takes he states seriously (repeatedly!) and teach us that he play the blues, but no r'n'r !!! (I think no matter how it is named, i love it anyway)
