Review

Louisiana native Kevin Gordon returns with his first recording in five years, O Come Look at the Burning, a raw and ambitious follow-up to the 2000 Shanachie release Down to the Well. Recorded on 15 tracks of a 16-track tape machine in a rental house in East Nashville, and produced by Kevin and Joe McMahan, Burning represents what Kevin's fans have wanted for years--a recording that matches the searing unpredictable intensity of his live shows. Along with ten new original songs, Gordon also covers the late great Eddie Hinton's "Something Heavy" as well as Willie Dixon's never-more-appropriate "Crazy Mixed-Up World," originally recorded in 1959 by Chess artist Little Walter. Special guests include a rare cameo by Charles "Wigg" Walker, a star on the north Nashville R&B scene in the early '60s, who once employed one young Jimi Hendrix, and wrote songs with the legendary Joe Tex. O Come Look at the Burning is a haunting passionate performance that embraces its influences without being trapped by them; a redefining of the often myopic term "Americana." Digipak.
