Eric Bibb here navigates the blues from just about every emotional angle and makes plenty of room for uplifting moments besides.  Tough, traditionally-flavored tracks- “Silver Spoon”, “Turner Station”- share space with a moody, jazz-tinged take- “God’s Mojo”, good-time double entendre- “Chocolate Man” and a fierce piece of talkin’ blues- “Rosewood”.  The inspirational fare is bolstered by guests The Blind Boys Of Alabama and Ruthie Foster. Bibb and Linda Tillery channel the Staple Singers- right down to the 70’s Stax Records production sound on “Remember The Ones”.  It seems a few real gems always squeeze in before year’s end.  This is one of those.
