R. L. Burnside @ Richard's
Friday January 19th, 2001
Authentic bluesman, R. L. Burnside, flooded the town with a hearty serving of southern grit and soul as he hit Richard's on Richards this past week.

Listening to the effortless riffs and simple, effective, chord progressions it was immediately apparent that this was music direct from the source.

As one of Americas finest bluesman Burnside has continually redefined himself in his music and his sold out show, Jan 19th, proved he's as contemporary today as he ever was.

The diverse crowd spanned several generations and Burnside was in his element - introducing his music / heart and soul to a whole new generation of fans.

Accompanied by his grandson 'Cedric' on Drums and his adopted son, Kenny Brown, on guitar. The man held court like a king, and was generous with his attentions. Clearly this old timer has passed down some of his best riffs and lick's.

Amen!
