Lurrie Bell: “She’s A Good ‘Un”
Lurrie Bell, son of the late harmonica master Carrie Bell, is one of today’s premier blues artists. His guitar work seethes with passion, yet it’s focused and disciplined; his voice is rough-edged and muscular, capable of conveying both emotional intensity and vulnerability, often over the course of a single song. This track, from his autobiographically titled 2013 Delmark CD Blues In My Soul, finds him reprising a well-known Otis Rush standard – a daunting task, but Bell pulls it off with panache.
