Search - Lonnie Mack :: Glad I'm in the Band

LONNIE MACK: THE MAN WITH THE "WHAM!" Lonnie Mack--the guitar hero with that unmistakable "wham"-skims the cream from blues, country, soul and '50s rock 'n' roll, then churns it out through his trademark Gibson Flying V, sweet as butter and tangy as buttermilk. Mack is also possessed with a searing set of downhome pipes that can belt out a song with anyone. Sundazed presents three of Lonnie Mack's four Elektra albums, none previously available on CD. 1969's Glad I'm In The Band spotlights Lonnie's vocal talents on songs ranging from New Orleans R&B to roadhouse hillbilly. Whatever's Right is the smoothest country/soul sourmash blend this side of a Tennessee distillery. And 1971's The Hills Of Indiana, waxed in Muscle Shoals and Nashville, is a country-dominated gem. Essential to Mack's legacy, these three discs are smoking-gun evidence: Lonnie Mack was as close to a guitar god as America has ever produced.
