Robert Pete Williams - Santa Fe Blues Last Recordings
Review by Rhonda Gassman
Robert Pete Williams' final album, Santa Fe Blues Last Recordings, is a hauntingly beautiful collection of blues songs that will leave listeners in awe of the late artist's talent. The album features Williams' signature raw vocals and intricate guitar playing, showcasing his deep understanding of the blues genre.
The album's title track, "Santa Fe Blues," sets the tone for the album, with Williams' soulful voice accompanied by a melancholic guitar melody. Other standout tracks include "Louise," a heartbreaking ballad about lost love, and "Goodbye Slim Harpo," a tribute to the legendary blues musician who passed away in 1970.
What makes this album so special is the raw emotion that Williams pours into each song. His lyrics are deeply personal, and his delivery is authentic and raw. It's clear that Williams was a true bluesman at heart, and this album is a testament to his legacy.
