Big Creek Slim “Migration Blues” LP

Big Creek Slim er inspireret af den oprindelige sydstats blues og navne som Son House, Charlie Patton, Robert Johnson og Muddy Waters. Selvom han er opvokset i Ikast, så har han opholdt sig gennem længere tid i USA og hans spillestil er fuldstændig autentisk sydstats blues baseret på egne frustrationer og livserfaringer .

“Ramblin’ Big Creek was recorded live over three days in a studio in the West Side of Arhus. It involved 11 musicians (including a three-piece horn section), one engineer, one microphone and no overdubs.

Big Creek Slim produced the album, with a couple of specific objectives: (1) to record only original material on the album and (2) for the recording to have one cohesive sound throughout.

Big Creek targeted what he calls a “perfectly unperfect” sound on Ramblin’, one that would capture the raw spontaneity of country blues and early urban blues recordings, as found on such labels as Sun, Chess and Excello.

Big Creek sang and played guitar, harmonica and piano on the album, which moves adeptly through blues, soul and roots rock ‘n’ roll.”
