Charlie Musselwhite - Takin My Time
Review by Alyssa Navarro
Charlie Musselwhite's album Takin My Time is a true gem in the blues music genre. The album is a collection of 12 tracks that showcase Musselwhite's exceptional talent as a harmonica player and blues singer. The album is a perfect blend of traditional blues and modern blues rock.
The opening track "Blue St. Midnight" sets the tone for the rest of the album with its slow, bluesy rhythm and Musselwhite's soulful harmonica playing. The album also features some upbeat tracks like "River Hip Mama" and "Christo Redemptor" that will get the listener dancing.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Leaving Your Town," a melancholic ballad that showcases Musselwhite's emotive vocals and his ability to tell a story through his music. Another highlight is "Movin' and Groovin'," a fun and energetic track that will get the listener tapping their feet.
