TRAVELING RIVERSIDE BLUES

from Todd Rundgren · host bob cerm

Playing a Telecaster and layering the sound, Rundgren charges aggressively through Johnson’s repertoire, and, like Clapton, he pulls off the vocals without sounding out of his element. Will blues diehards find Rundgren’s homage compelling? Unlikely. After all, countless musicians have paid tribute to Johnson in more emotionally stirring ways. Yet for Rundgren devotees and many others, this Delta-inspired excursion is well worth checking out. — Mike Joyce; Washington Post
