New one just released a week or two ago from Tony Joe White. Love the deep voice. I've seen his sound described as "swamp rock."
Never too late ..... It took many years before I really heard his song "Polk Salad Annie" for the great tune that it was. I stumbled across the album the song is included on in an antique shop and though I really didn't know much about his music at the time, I was looking to bolster my vinyl record collection with classic 1960's and early 70's sounds. What a great find it turned out to be!! And now I'm a huge fan!!
When a musician has a forty-plus years career (or more) there's always a then and now comparison. More often than not, it seems that "then" prevails. For Tony Joe White though, both eras are great!
From starting out listening to my parents records to staying up late at night listening to the radio to being introduced to album collecting as a teenager to making mix-tapes and into the present, it seems that I've always been searching for and listening to music of widely varied genres. Here's an idea of what I've been hearing along the way ....
