- Cadillac John, Crazy About You, $15. 76-year-old Mississippi blues singer and sometimes harmonica player Cadillac John shines on this indie release. He's accompanied by Cleveland, Mississippi guitarist Bill Abel, and the results are pure deep Delta blues. Cadillac's voice is nicely aged and recognizable. Abel plays gently amplified guitar with a slide and a warm tone. Don't let the modest, homegrown packaging scare you. The recording's production quality is fine. (By the way, Cadillac sings the traditional lyrics of "Bottle Up And Go", so be forewarned that the "N" word appears.) 11 tracks:
- Crazy About You
- Mule Talk
- Ride My Mule
- My Baby Left Me This Morning
- Bottle Up And Go
- Eight And Sixty-one
- Vicksburg Blues
- Automobile
- Noah
- Prowlin' Groundhog
