Review

Born and raised near Chicago, guitarist/vocalist Moss has effectively captured the classic sound of 1950s-style Chicago blues as exemplified by Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Otis Rush and Buddy Guy. Before going out on his own, Nick went to "blues school" by going out on the road and recording with such artists as Jimmy Dawkins, the Legendary Blues Band, Willie "Big Eyes" Smith, Big Bill Morganfield and--most notably--legendary guitarist Jimmy Rogers, who was Nick's primary influence and mentor for the almost three years Nick was in his band as second guitarist.

The album's title refers to Nick's first child, born last May and named after Hound Dog Taylor and John Lee Hooker songs. "Sadie Mae" features 13 original songs, as well as his own smokin' interpretations of songs by Earl Hooker ("You Got to Lose"), Lefty Dizz ("If I Could Get My Hands on You") and Jimmy Rogers ("Crazy Woman Blues").

Nick's previous three albums all received critical acclaim from blues audiences around the globe, and his last two albums, Count Your Blessings (2003) and Got a New Plan (2001) both earned him W.C. Handy Award nominations. His band, the Flip Tops, includes some of the best young blues players around, including keyboardist Bob Welsh (Charlie Musselwhite, Rusty Zinn), harmonica player/guitarist Gerry Hundt, bassist Dave Wood and drummer Victor Spann. Out front and center is the incendiary guitar and vocals of Nick Moss, himself, who transports the listener back in time to a Southside juke joint with a few guitar licks or moanin' vocals.
