Review

Seamlessly blending the harmonies of Southern gospel artists like the Pilgrim Travelers, the down-home boogie rhythms of Jimmy Reed, and the honky-tonk of Hank Williams, the Holmes Brothers create music loaded with grit, integrity, and a serious groove. Soul Street is a little lower-key than their other releases, but the Holmes Brothers still attain their usual level of greatness. Their intertwining vocals on "You're Gonna Make Me Cry" linger in the mind long after the disc is through. "I Found a Winner" offers a sweet polyphony of vocal lines and a stirring climax. The snappy funk of "Dashboard Bar" and "I Won't Hurt You Anymore" is tailor-made for any road trip, and the aforementioned Jimmy Reed's "Down in Virginia" is given a deliciously raw juke-joint treatment. Once again, the only hard decision about a Holmes Brothers release is choosing a favorite song. --Ken Hohman
