R.L. Burnside - Wish I Was In Heaven Sitting Down

R.L Burnside is the ultimate paradox of blues music--he is the last genuine performer of raw Mississippi hill country sound, as well as the most cutting edge crossover artist the blues has had in the past 30 years. His new record Wish I Was In Heaven Sitting Down proves it. It is the accumulation of 73 years of hard-earned experience and contains some of R.L.'s best singing ever. His voice has gained maturity and depth, while his phrasing is detailed and emotional.
