The blues lovers can rejoice again with a new album of our blues pearl of today. Ian Siegal has already left an indelible impression during his performances in recent years, but has also caused quite a stir with his albums. This is the next in succession if you ask me. The album is mainly acoustic, but there are also a few live tracks on it. The accompaniment is very sober: Ian plays guitar and percussion and of course sings again as if the devil is after him. Also special contributions from BJ. Cole on pedal steel guitar and also Sam Hare who also throws in the money with his guitar playing and vocal contribution. The dust is an album that was to be expected, because Siegal also regularly does acoustic things during his gigs, and has also sold recordings in this trend before. In any case, he can do it all, and shows that he is one of the greatest in the blues scene, with comparisons like Howlin Wolf, Muddy Waters, but just as easily Tom Waits as well. Siegal goes into the darkest recesses of the blues world on this album, and the shivers run down your spine from his very expressive guitar sound. During his performance in Paradiso, Ian surprised the audience with a number of covers that were truly unparalleled, and a few of them can also be found on this unparalleled album. In this context I mention I Drink, a composition by Mary Gauthier, but beautifully designed by Ian. The song Southern Cross Blues is one of my absolute favorites on this album, in short Let yourself be carried away to the Mississippi and beyond, because Ian is a real treasure, and we have to cherish this one with all of our hearts.
