The most recent album by
Geremia is an acoustic blues jewel, with superb renditions of songs by
Barbecue Bob ("She Moves It Just Right"),
Blind Lemon Jefferson ("Cheater's Spell"),
Blind Willie McTell ("Blues Around Midnight"), and
Skip James ("Special Rider Blues"), as well as some first-rate traditional-style originals. Del Long and
Rory McLeod back up his six- and 12-string work on piano and upright bass, respectively, in this spare, authentic-sounding acoustic folk-blues outing. Eric Von Schmidt provided the cover art. ~ Bruce Eder
