While many can artfully sing and play the blues, not many artists vividly personalize the genre as does Watermelon Slim. The gravel-voiced Oklahoma-based slide guitarist/harmonica player is a convincing blues Everyman, exorcising his own demons or drawing on classic themes. His own “Let It Be In Memphis” and the particularly haunting “Archetypal Blues” and “Dark Genius” stand out on this two-disc “live” release as does his co-authored “Devil’s Cadillac”.
