A new tune from favorite, JD McPherson, would definitely perk my ears up a bit, and when I hit play, out shoots a driving, pounding, breathy blues roots track that I totally fell in love with. It’s got a raw, pure feeling to it, like it came out of his guitar on it’s own. It may be more of McPherson’s interpretation of blues-roots, but it feels more authentically his versus a retro-style. Either way, I’m in love, and it’s only whetting my appetite for more.
Look for McPherson’s new record, Let the Good Times Roll, out in February on Rounder Records.
Needs more baritone sax. If he ditched the sax on this record because of the “throwback” hate, I’ma be pissed.

I hope there is no throwback hate period. I like the sound on this track, it feels rough and rowdy and I dig the heck out of it.
