keb 'mo'

Posted by: ken c on 12 April 2001

hi again,

oh my, if you like his approach to blues, then i urge you go and buy keb mo's "the doors" without delay. what a gem!!! i actually suspect i have been slow on this one -- those who like this guy will probably already have this album i am sure...

i am still playing through the latest finds from mvc this afternoon -- if i happen on any more gems -- will let you know. but this keb mo is fab.

enjoy...

Ken,
I've recently bought this one & agree its a great blues CD.Have you heard an earlier Keb'Mo'
by the same name, I think its about 1994.Its even better.
I've seen it in the HMV sale for £4.99 an absolute bargain.
Have you listened to any of Eric Bibb's music

hi dave h, thanks for picking this up. i have 2 other keb mo's -- "just like you" and "keb 'mo' " .. his style has grown on me -- and i thoroughly enjoyed "the door".

eric beeb: oh man ... i think i have 3 of his albums -- "spirit and the blues" remains a favourite -- i am just about to order "just like love" -- i gather this is a gem also.

are you into blues?? what other stuff do you consider "must haves"???

enjoy...

I have Keb's first album on vinyl and it's a keeper. Surprisingly good blues for someone so young.

If you can, check out Eric Bibb's old Opus 3 vinyl releases, such as "River Road", "E. Bibb and Friends", and "Golden Apples of the Sun". Pure magic, but sadly out of print.

Cheers

Keith.

Liked The Door however consider his previous albums better. Have a number of Erics; Roadworks being the most recent will hear him in the flesh on 14th May then Robert Cray in June Live music great.

If you like blues then may I suggest

Weppin Willie on APO
Humert Sumlin on APO
