Review

Dirty Linen (p.91) - "Watermelon Slim & the Workers have gained quite a reputation for their live shows, and that energy comes across successfully on the album."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.106) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Slim's gruff, gnarled delivery locates him squarely in the vocal lineage of the blues, while his harmonica and slide guitar playing lead The Workers through the musical terrain of Delta and Chicago..."

Title Note

Personnel: Watermelon Slim (vocals, slide guitar, dobro, harp); Ike Lamb (acoustic guitar, electric guitar, background vocals); Cliff Belcher (electric guitar, background vocals); Michael Newberry (drums, percussion, background vocals).

Additional personnel: Dennis Borysckl (piano); Chris Wick (electric bass).

Oklahoma blues singer, harp player, and slide guitarist Bill Homans is known to the paying public as Watermelon Slim. He plays a chunky update of traditional blues, performing both self-penned originals like "Hard Times" and well-chosen covers like Mississippi Fred McDowell's train song, "Frisco Line." Slim's voice carries the authentic stamp of a hard-lived life, and he's ably supported by an empathetic stripped-down acoustic and electric combo.
