Description: |
|
Cole Riley has a literary voice that is very
much his own, one that sings the Delta Blues
with all the feelings that, say, a Joe
Turner of Robert Johnson would put into
words. Hot Snake Nights is a sundown song
story of a Mississippi Delta family torn by
lust, hate, racism, ignorance and just plain
old bad luck--that low down, lonesome blues
kind of bad luck…where nights are long, the
mood is full and somewhere, far across the
fields, someone is picking out the blues on
a guitar. And then a shot rings out…and
another woman with four small children will
soon learn that she will have to “make do”
without her man. As soon as they bury him.
It’s that sort of story, one that surprises,
one that breaks your heart. |
