Blues On The Bayou. Taking his hard-working road band into a remote Louisiana studio, King and crew recorded Blues On The Bayou in a mere four days. A fifteen-song collection of old and new tunes written or co-written by King, the album was done live in the studio, offering no overdubs or production wizardry, just plain music. King debuts as a producer here for the first time, and the result is as tasteful treatment of the blues as you’ll find.
At the heart of every song is King’s masterful six-string work. A maestro on the guitar, King’s fluid playing style and the unique tone he coaxes out of "Lucille" sounds more jazzy than bluesy. Throw in King’s growling, soulful vocals on songs like "Broken Promise" or "I Got Some Outside Help I Don’t Need" and you’ll find the traditional wellspring from which King draws his blues.
The backing band, which has literally played hundreds of shows with King, support the songs in an understated manner, respectfully allowing King and his amazing guitar to dominate the proceedings.
