October 1995 / January 1996
Fils du bluesman Jimmy Rogers (et de sa femme Dorothy), il est repéré par les producteurs John Koenig et Chad Kassem lors de l'enregistrement de l'album de son père "Bluebird". Pourtant, il propose ici un album résolument Blues-Rock avec la forte influence de Jimi Hendrix. Un album puissant sans beaucoup de subtilités avec rythmique lourde et guitare omniprésente.
Son of bluesman Jimmy Rogers (and his wife Dorothy), he was spotted by producers John Koenig and Chad Kassem during the recording of his father's album "Bluebird". However, here he offers a resolutely Blues-Rock album with the strong influence of Jimi Hendrix. A powerful album without many subtleties with heavy rhythm and omnipresent guitar.
LEGACY
APO
October 1997
Avec cet album, Jimmy revient à une sonorité plus Blues (et un peu moins Rock) bien entouré par le producteur Joe Harley. Autour de lui, il a invité de bons musiciens comme Per Hanson, Carey Bell, Hubert Sumlin, Sam Lay et son père Jimmy Rogers (pour ses deux derniers enregistrements quelques jours avant sa mort). Un programme intense dont on peut ressortir "Four o'clock in the morning", "Another mule kickin' in my stall", "In this bed", "Dem blues", "One room country shack".
With this album, Jimmy returns to a more Blues sound (and a little less Rock) well surrounded by producer Joe Harley. Around him, he invited good musicians like Per Hanson, Carey Bell, Hubert Sumlin, Sam Lay and his father Jimmy Rogers (for his last two recordings a few days before his death). An intense program in which we can point out "Four o'clock in the morning", "Another mule kickin' in my stall", "In this bed", "Dem blues", "One room country shack".
IT'S TIME
APO
2004
Sous la supervision du producteur Eddie Kramer, Jimmy revient à un son Blues-Rock puissant. Cependant, on trouve dans ce programme inégal mais sympathique une poignée de titres intéressants qui valent l'écoute comme "Till I loved you", "Hand on the door", "Bad luck", "Bleeding heart". Il est ici accompagné de Double Trouble (Chris Layton & Tommy Shannon) ainsi que de Mike Finnigan.
Under the supervision of producer Eddie Kramer, Jimmy returns to a powerful Blues-Rock sound. However, in this uneven but pleasant program we find a handful of interesting titles that are worth listening to like "Till I loved you", "Hand on the door", "Bad luck", "Bleeding heart". He is here accompanied by Double Trouble (Chris Layton & Tommy Shannon) as well as Mike Finnigan.
