Description
When Jimmie Vaughan says "I have the best job in the world," he isn't kidding. For more than four decades, the guitar-slinging Texan legend has been earning his living rockin' the blues, and nothing makes the man happier. But now, Vaughan is even more excited about his gig than usual - for his newest release he's consulted the vast blues encyclopedia that resides deep inside of his head and come up with a nearly all-covers set best described by its unambiguous title: Blues, Ballads and Favorites.
Self-produced and recorded in Vaughan's hometown of Austin, the newest offering by the co-founder of the iconic, still-missed Fabulous Thunderbirds spotlights a wild array of tunes originally recorded by the likes of Roy Milton, Jimmy Reed, Roscoe Gordon and Little Richard, with a Willie Nelson favorite tossed in. No particular criteria were used in selecting the tracks to include; Vaughan simply narrowed down a long list of songs he liked and Blues, Ballads and Favorites was the ultimate result.
