Jimmie VAUGHAN - Out There 1998


Jimmie VAUGHAN - Out There 1998

Blues

Jimmie Vaughan s second solo album, Out There is quite similar to its predecessor, Strange Pleasure delivering a familiar blend of Texas blues and roadhouse blues-rock. Of course, that isn't a problem. Ever since the Fabulous Thunderbirds Vaughan has been at the forefront of Texas blues-rock, and while he's calmed down some with age, he remains a vital, classy guitarist -- even on the weaker material, his tasteful solos are utterly engaging. It's too bad that his material doesn't always match his skills, but there's enough straight-ahead,
enjoyable music here to make it worth a listen.
By Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide.

This album is nowhere near the painstaking driven outerspace sound of Stevie Ray, Jimmie's brother, but it's not supposed to be. This style is different and is execellent if you take it for what it is, a complete stand-up blues album. One that you can have a good time with and listen to front to back without any track skipping like with some albums. Jimmie is an underrated bluesman with a voice as smooth as albert King and a guitar style as cool as B.B. King. Anybody trying to pick up the blues needs to hear this array of electric and acoustic deep blues and old time rythms and melodies. Jimmie Vaughan may not be a guitar god like his brother but I think this album seals him in as being one of the most talented living bluesman alive and as having one of the most easily spotted styles aside of that. Beginning to end you can feel the cool subtle workings of his guitar and his voice and his simple traditional sounding blues lyrics. Of course at times you hear a little bit of good old rock and roll but what is old rock and roll if not a voodoo child of the quick blues? Stevie Ray is smiling down on his Big Bro with no doubt as he unleashes this humble but happy record with total style and grace.
