Title: Live at The Bird Lounge Artist: Lightnin' Hopkins Label: Good Time Product Type: COMPACT DISCS UPC: 741869397480 Genre: Blues
This album of Sam "Lightnin" Hopkins is unique in many ways. It is a well known fact that this artist has been recorded many times - all excellent as only he could be. However, in the past, Lightnin's recording sessions have been planned and ended up "studio dates". With this album, we took recording equipment to a night club ("The Bird Lounge") in Houston, Texas where he was performing live as a club entertainer. By doing this, we captured a Lightnin' seldom heard before. The songs, stories, and feeling is spontaneous, alive and real. We head this unusual artist in his natural surroundings which give a realism of his kind of music - down-home, heartfelt blues.
