Mesh Match For "You Better Run: The Essential Junior Kimbrough" CD by Junior Kimbrough:


Junior Kimbrough Artist Snapshot:

Although he didn't record until he was in his 60s, Junior Kimbrough is one of the most important blues guitarists of the latter half of the 20th century. In addition to performing his incredibly influential brand of rhythmic hill-country blues--a style that placed the musical focus on the groove rather than on six-string pyrotechnics--Kimbrough also owned one of the last true juke joints, which provided a venue for, among others, the great R.L. Burnside. Kimbrough (whose impact on young 1990s garage rockers is comparable to B.B. King's on '60s British blues boom guitarists like Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page) passed away in 1998.

Rolling Stone (9/19/02, p.106) - 4 stars out of 5 - "This, boys and girls, is why not everyone can play the blues....The music is dark and vibrant, the sex nasty, the nights late and messy, and women not to be trusted."
Entertainment Weekly (10/25/02, p.77) - "...A dozen examples of Kimbrough's iconoclastic mix of raw menace and unexpected beauty..." - Rating: A
Living Blues (11/02, pp.76-7) - "...The album paints a beautiful aural picture of Kimbrough..."
