As songs like the original “Minnibelle” and the traditional “Two Trains” show, Theessink’s interest in the genre arises not from a prurient or nostalgic attraction to its exotic subject matter, but rather from a genuine fascination with the playing and singing of ist practitioners. “Minnibelle” achieves an authentic sound without resorting to lyrical cliches or imitations of ethnic speech: The authenticity lies in Theessink’s grasp of the deep structure of the form. “Big Bill’s Guitar”, a paean to Big Bill Broonzy, skillfully interweaves elements of Broonzy’s style – his thwacking, empathic fingerpicking and his “talking blues” storytelling style – into a song about Theessink’s inspiration. Lipscomb’s “Sugar Babe” and Theessink’s more interpretive version of Blind Lemmon Jefferson’s “One Kind Favor” showcase his mastery of the strange and diverse guitar styles of his forebears. Running like a golden thread through all of Theessink’s work – is his inspired and accomplished musicianship as both guitarist and vocalist. - PC, Sing Out, Vol.40 #4 (USA) -- HARD ROAD BLUES Artist Hans Theessink Tittel Hard Road Blues Sjanger Blues / Rhythm & Blues Format CD Antall plater 1 Lydkvalitet Audiofil Plateselskap Blue Groove Utgivelsesdato 1994 Platenummer BG-6020 Spilletid 46:40 Diverse Opplag HARD ROAD BLUES Nr TITTEL 01 Big Bill`s Guitar (3:00) 02 Hard Road Blues (4:35) 03 You Make Me Feel So Good (3:08) 04 Prison Blues (3:06) 05 Two Trains (4:10) 06 Blind Willie (3:00) 07 Sugar Babe (2:27) 08 Minnibelle (3:00) 09 Vicksburg Is My Home (4:50) 10 One Kind Favour (5:03) 11 Shotgun Blues (2:36) 12 Cypress Grove (5:10) 13 Sitting On Top Of The World (3:55)
