His California Album

Bobby Blue Bland

Out Of Stock

LP (Item 437454) ABC, 1973 — Condition: Used

A nice little record from Bobby – quite different from his 60s sides for Duke/Peacock, and recorded in California (as you might guess from the title!) with a smoother more soulful approach. The style works well for Bobby – and kind of gave him a new lease on life during the 70s, as he mixed his rougher bluesy vocals with some hipper arrangements – still quite deep in soul, but with a compressed sound that creates a new mode of expression. Titles include "Goin Down Slow", "Up & Down World", "Help Me Through The Day", "Where Baby Went", "Friday The 13th Child", "This Time I'm Gone For Good", and "I've Got To Use My Imagination". (White label promo. Cover has a promo sticker, some pen on the back, and two spots of old tape on the spine.) © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
