Title: Too Bad Jim Artist: R.L. Burnside Label: Fat Possum Records Product Type: VINYL LP UPC: 045778030712 Genre: Blues Release Date: 1997-09-23 Number of Discs: 1
Too Bad Jim is cut from the same cloth as it's predecessor, Bad Luck City. It features R.L. Burnside fronting a small juke joint combo, tearing through some greasy blues. However, Too Bad Jim is the better album, simply from a performance standpoint. Burnside sounds more relaxed and the band steps back from the spotlight slightly, letting the guitarist burn brightly on his own, showcasing his deep blues roots.
