Review

Mojo (Publisher) (12/00, p.64) - "...Since signing with the Jackson-based label in 1985, Bland has made some 10 albums all of a consistent quality. This one...is a good place to start."

Recorded at Muscle Shoals Sound Studios, Sheffield, Alabama and Malaco Studios, Jackson, Mississippi.

This 1993 release is one of the best Bobby Bland made for Jackson, Mississippi-based Malaco Records. It was recorded at Muscle Shoals Studios, utilizing some of their superlative players, including the perfectly synched rhythm section of drummer Roger Hawkins and bassist David Hood.

The bulk of the songs are written by such Malaco regulars as George Jackson, who penned the opening "Somewhere Between Right & Wrong," the sassy "Hole in the Wall," and the shuffling "Hurtin' Time Again," and Frederick Knight, whose "I Just Tripped on a Piece of Your Broken Heart" is the heart and center of this album. While Bland's Duke label recordings from the '50s are rightfully held up as his peaks, YEARS OF TEARS demonstrates that with the right players, production, and material, he's still a force to be reckoned with.
