The Blues trace their roots to North American slavery, with its complete negation of basic human rights and the resulting loss of consideration for the individual among generations of AfroAmericans. A direct result of this terrible dehumanizing experience, the blues have evolved as an extremely expressive music form which goes right to the heart and the ear of the listener in a simple and direct manner.
This album features cIassic titles from such historical blues giants as Blind Blake, Blind Boy Fuller, Robert Johnson and Charley Patton. The styles and sound of the individual members of the group are reflected in these fresh new arrangements, giving new character while also retaining the original simplicity of the blues.
Stop At The Devil’s Crossroad is more than a simple playlist of standards, it is an atmospheric collection which brings to light various sonic shadings, from classics like Delta-Blues with acoustic resonator guitar, harmonica and voice, to the electric sound of traditional blues trio, to a fuller line up with expanded rhythm section, voice and winds.
Stop At The Devil’s Crossroad is a journey of rediscovery, as Nik Lee and The Jingle Fellas pay tribute to this simple yet vastly expressive music.
