Description
Virtuoso blues guitarist Ronnie Earl, a multiple Handy Award winner, blends the deep blues with the improvisational daring of jazz on this 1999 release. Performing at the absolute peak of contemporary blues guitar craft, he doesn't so much perform the eleven tunes on Healing Time as pour his heart and soul into them.
Featuring Muddy Waters' "Catfish Blues," pianist Duke Pearson's "Idle Moments," saxophonist Pharoah Sanders' "Thembi," "Amazing Grace" and seven originals. The "boss of the Hammond B-3" Jimmy McGriff guests on "Churchin'" as well as the amazing slow-blues workout "Blues on a Sunday."
Personnel: Ronnie Earl (guitar), Jimmy McGriff (Hammond B-3 organ), Anthony Geraci (keyboards), Michael "Mudcat" Ward (bass), Don Williams (drums)
