Robert Belfour, Pushin My Luck, 2003 Fat Possum Records, $17. Man, oh man. This CD should have been called "The Real Deal." Because it is as real as it gets. Belfour may have left the Mississippi Hill Country for Memphis in 1959, but the hypnotic sound of the Hill Country jukes never left him. If you like Jr. Kimbrough, R.L. Burnside and Jessie Mae Hemphill, then you'll love Pushin My Luck. It's all acoustic. Many cuts with Ted Gainey drums. 10 tracks:
- Hill Stomp
- Breaking My Heart
- Pushin' My Luck
- Go Ahead On
- You Got Me Crying
- I Got My Eyes On You
- Sweet Brown Sugar
- Stayed Awake
- Crazy Ways
- I'm Gonna Leave
- Cadillac John, Crazy About You, $12.
