The Best of 2007
Fruteland Jackson Company | Crown Point | 07/05/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"On "Tell Me What You Say" Jackson proves again that he is a master of classic Delta Blues and Piedmont Blues. I am very, very impressed by this acoustic album. Together with his musical partners: Chris Whiteley: Guitar, Harmonica and Trumpet; Diana Braithewaite: Vocals; Julian Fauth: Piano; Kevin Fox: Cello and Bucky Berger on Drums and Percussion, Fruteland Jackson succeeds to make a gripping album from the first to the last song. The song "Blues Over Baghdad" is heartrending. Cello and Trumpet accomplish an atmosphere in the song that gets frightening; it captures the atmosphere of a war zone.

As an extra Fruteland tells a story on two of the tracks. The opening track is an a-cappela blues song with the fine voice of Jackson. Another thing that moved me on this album are the liner notes by Fruteland Jackson, for example: "The Blues is the poor man's psychologist, a private counselor, and a friend".

This album is not just a blues CD; it is a blues document, filled with honest emotion!!!!!
