Ronnie Earl & The Broadcasters - The Color Of Love
About the Album:
It’s Katz’s “Hippology” that opens the album with a
swinging bang, sporting guest appearances on alto sax from Hank
Crawford and Allman Brothers alumni Jaimoe on drums. Crawford also
shows up again on “Anne’s Dream,” while Jaimoe joins Marc Quinones for
a two-drummer rhythm section guest turn on “Bonnie’s Theme” and “Mother
Angel.” Gregg Allman plays Hammond B-3 organ and contributes the
album’s only vocal on “Everyday Kinda Man.” But guest stars aside, this
is clearly Ronnie Earl’s show to direct, and his playing, as always,
sports exquisite taste, economy, and tone for days. His
nine-plus-minute soliloquy on Thelonious Monk’s “‘Round Midnight” (the
only cover on this album) blasts the venerable jazz standard into new
territory as Earl’s passages take on almost trumpet-like tonalities,
while his “I Like That Thing You Did” (dedicated to Jimmie Vaughan)
creates an organ-like sound with tons of ultra-shimmering Leslie
vibrato. Since adopting an all-instrumental format several albums back,
Earl’s music has blossomed in a multitude of directions, embracing
jazz, soul, and the rockier aspects of guitarists like Carlos Santana
(the title track) and Peter Green ("Heart of Glass"), and bringing new
life to the organ jazz combo format ("Deep Pockets") while remaining
true to his deep blues roots, like in his closing tribute to Albert
Collins, “O’Yeah.” This release pushes the envelope even further and
breaks new ground, wrapped in the velvet glove of Tom Dowd’s
production. ~ Cub Koda, All Music Guide

About the Album:
The last few albums have had a smattering of vocals. This time around
half the tracks have vocals. It was an inspired choice having Kim
Wilson on four of them. Kim proves to be the perfect vocal partner to
Ronnie’s fantastic guitar work. There is the added bonus of Kim’s
top-notch harp playing. Ronnie Earl is comfortable in any musical style
or tempo He is truly the master of his instrument. Greg Piccolo is on
board for a vocal on one track. His singing has improved out of sight.
He also plays great sax on another track. Dave Limina on organ and
piano, Jimmy Mouradian on bass and Lorne Entress on drums are Ronnie’s
newest Broadcasters and have settled in very comfortably as the rhythm
section. But the highlight as always with a Ronnie Earl recording is
his terrific tasty fretwork. Not many artists can put out a recording
of new material and maintain quality over much more than 50 minutes.
This album is more than 70 minutes and it wasn’t long enough! Quality
and quantity. Who could ask for anything more? I envy the new listener
who discovers Ronnie Earl for the first time and has the opportunity to
delve into his back catalogue.

About the Album:
On this all-instrumental album, one of the finest blues guitarists of
his generation layers jazz on top of blues on top of something
indefinable, something directly from the heart. From the cool drive of
"Eddie's Gospel Groove" to the minor-key sweetness of "Beautiful
Child," Earl speaks with his guitar -- eloquently and passionately.
There are many players with great technique, some with great feel, but
few with Ronnie Earl's ability to combine both in the service of the
soul.

1. Eddie's Gospel Groove
2. Beautiful Child
3. Indigo Burrell
4. Blues For Martin Luther King
5. Harvard Square Stomp

Ronnie Earl - I Feel Like Goin' On (2003)
Bitrate: @ CBR 320
About the Album:
Guitarist
Ronnie Earl recorded the majority of the instrumental release I Feel
Like Goin' On live in the studio with no overdubbing. As one of the
best contemporary blues guitarists around, Earl naturally shows off his
prowess on these 11 cuts, with sturdy assistance from Dave Limina on
piano/organ, Jimmy Mouradian on bass, Lorne Entress on drums, and
special guest guitarist Josй Alvares. On the whole, I Feel Like Goin'
On is tight, passionate, and gritty, especially on the soul-blues of
"Hey Josй," "Blues for Otis Rush," "Howlin' for My Darlin'," and
"Travelin' Heavy." While the majority of the album is uptempo, Earl
does slow down the pace on the beautiful ballad "Donna" and the
traditional gospel-flavored "Mary Don't You Weep," featuring the only
vocal appearance on the disc, by the Silver Leaf Gospel Singers. ~ Al
Campbell, All Music Guide
Track List:
1. Hey Jose
2. Blues For Otis Rush
3. Little Johnny Lee
4. Wolf Dance
5. Mary Don't You Weep

About the Album:
On this outing, Grateful Heart: Blues and Ballads, he surrounds himself
with an excellent quartet of players with David "Fathead" Newman on
tenor sax, Per Hanson on drums, Rod Carey on bass, and Bruce Katz on
keyboards, and the results are simply sublime. Instead of a bunch of
Chicago retreads, we are treated to a heady mixture of blues, jazz,
soul, swing, you name it, all of it infused with taste, tone and
economy. When Earl burns, the results are jaw dropping; when he slows
it down, his choice of notes is exquisite. "Welcome Home," "Still Soul
Searching," "Drown in My Own Tears" and "Skyman (For Duane Allman)" are
just a few of the highlights, but there really isn't a wasted note on
this record to be found. Anywhere. ~ Cub Koda, All Music Guide

Ronnie Earl & The Broadcasters - Still River (1994)

This
particular version of the Broadcasters was unarguably magical, and this
recording reveals why. Recorded four years after Earl dealt with his
demons (alcohol, drugs, nervous collapse), it is the first of a string
of all-instrumental albums by Earl, and it drips with class and soul.
It's not just the exceptional skill of the players, however, that makes
it so special; it was recorded on one of a handful of audiophile labels
(AudioQuest), and therefore features state-of-the-art production. From
the ringing opening chords of Magic Sam's "Blues for the West Side" to
the beautiful acoustic guitar/piano duet of "Derek's Peace," Still
River is thoroughly enjoyable. "Kansas City Monarch" is slow and sweet,
featuring Bruce Katz tearing up the low notes, a nice sax solo by
Anders Gaardmand, and some great double-string work by Earl. There is a
moody version of John Coltrane's "Equinox" and a bog-dwelling rouser
written by the entire band called "Chili Ba Hugh." You'll also like the
greasy Hammond B3 organ on "Soul Serenade." A tempo change three
minutes into the song suddenly finds the listener "getting religion"
and tempted to yell "Amen!." Earl's own "Rego Park Blues" also
showcases some nice B3 and finds Earl in the place where he shines the
brightest, delicately coaxing a hushed solo from his Strat. Although
not as jazzy as Earl's subsequent efforts, Still River sows the seeds
that sprouted a few years later with Language of the Soul and with the
albums that followed.

1. Blues For The West Side
2. Time To Remember
