BIG TIME BLUES MAN

Red Lightnin'

Music is Medicine

1982

Il s'agit du seul album studio d'Isaac Scott. Il fut édité par la marque anglaise Red Lightnin' et enregistré sous la houlette du producteur Bob Krinsky. Bon chanteur et guitariste précis, il délivre ici un bel album avec des titres notables : "Listen to the blues", "Standin' on the outside", "Moonbelly", "Don't let my baby ride", "On the road again". Par contre, sa reprise du "Help" des Beatles ne semble guère convaincante. Au final, un opus prometteur d'un artiste qui aurait mérité plus d'opportunités.

This is Isaac Scott's only studio album. It was published by the english label Red Lightnin' and recorded under the leadership of producer Bob Krinsky. A good singer and precise guitarist, he delivers here a nice album with notable titles : "Listen to the blues", "Standin' on the outside", "Moonbelly", "Don't let my baby ride", "On the road again". On the other hand, his cover of the Beatles' "Help" does not seem convincing. In the end, a promising opus from an artist who deserved more opportunities.

Malheureusement de nombreux ennuis de santé ont empêché Isaac Scott de mener une vraie carrière. Souffrant d'hypertension et de diabète, il a dû être amputé de ses deux jambes et il se produit ici en chaine roulante. Sa technique à la guitare est intacte mais les morceaux dépassent souvent les 10 minutes et peuvent provoquer l'ennui de l'auditeur. Pour les fans inconditionnels de ce guitariste méconnu.

Unfortunately, many health problems prevented Isaac Scott from leading a real career. Suffering from hypertension and diabetes, he had to have both his legs amputated and he performs here in a wheelchair. His guitar technique is intact but the tracks often exceed 10 minutes and can cause the boredom of the listener. For unconditional fans of this unknown guitarist.
