titled Local Musician thankful for community support" from Buddy Flett: I wanted to write everyone a letter. I'm sitting on the bus with Kenny Wayne and Hubert Sumlin again. I can play one or two songs now. Y'all made this happen. Your support made this happen. I want everyone to know how much I appreciate them. I'm learning how to read, write and do arithmetic. I'm being taught how to talk again. Y'all are great. I'm the luckiest guy in the world with great friends. Thanks, Buddy

"Mississippi Sea" marks a bit of a departure from
Buddy's "sound" with the Bluebirds. Acoustic blues, nine songs written
or co-written by Buddy. A deep, laid back artistic statement by a
passionate Observer of the South. The imagery on these original tunes
is deeper than the Mississippi Sea. A wider point of reference than the
Mississippi Delta, with the Deep South mystique of the Ark-La-Miss and
the hard-edged feel pioneered by Texans like Lightnin' Hopkins."Flett's six-string work sounds like the missing Louisiana link to Elmore James and Muddy Waters" -Scott Jordan, Gambit Weekly, New Orleans. ++more info |
