| The Way Things Go |
The Way Things Go is a fresh take on
traditional Blues from the veteran Bluesman. Cleveland Fats once again
shows that he is a master singer, guitarist, and songwriter
highlighting his talents on 9 originals and 3 covers. This recording
includes the re-teaming with his former boss and mentor Robert
Lockwood, Jr, with whom Fats' has been working with for nearly 25
years.
This album also features Chicago Blues legends Aron Burton on Bass
(Albert Collins & the Icebreakers, as well as session player for
Alligator and other labels), Dave Jefferson (Willie Kent & the
Gents, and top session player) and keyboard duties shared by Aaron
Moore (Muddy Waters), Ariyo, and Vince Willis. Top that off with the
legendary Billy Branch on Harmonica and Earwig Music Company CEO and
blues historian Michael Frank as producer, and you have an unbeatable
combination.
