ELMORE JAMES

Description:
A radio repairman by trade, Elmore reworked his guitar amplifiers in his spare time, getting them to produce raw, distorted sounds that wouldn't resurface until the advent of heavy rock amplification in the late '60s. This amp on 11 approach was hot wired to one of the strongest emotional approaches to the blues ever recorded. There is never a time when you're listening to one of his records that you feel no matter how familiar the structure that he's phoning it in just to grab a quick session check. Elmore James always gave it everything he had, everything he could emotionally invest in a number.
