Rhythm, Country, & Blues
Geffen 1994/2021
Music from the documentary (TV Special?). I was really impressed when I saw this back when it came out and bought a cassette of the recordings from the sessions documented in the film. Now it’s on vinyl. This really seemed like something in 94 - getting black artists into the studio with country stars, doing duets, etc. Anyway, it holds up, and it’s really good.
Highlights include a duet with Lyle Lovett and Al Green, an absolutely sweet great Staples Singers version of The Weight, and a Billy Joe White tune...
