If being born in New Orleans, making R&B 45's in the 50s, backing T-Bone Walker and doing a stretch in a Federal Penitentiary in Texas fits your idea of what a legendary bluesman should be, then Fillmore Slim is your guy. Working out of the West Coast for the past 40 years or so, Slim's life mirrors that of the archetypical blues artist. Over the years Slim has proven to be an evasive character, changing his stage name frequently to suit his "circumstances", but he has surfaced long enough to record this CD for FEDORA. Along with a fiery group of West Coast veterans, including Paris Slim and J.J. Malone, Slim takes a no-holds-barred approach with aggressive guitar playing, soulful singing and some of the best original blues song writing heard in ages. Think that modern blues is at a standstill? Check out Fillmore Slim, he'll make you a believer once again.
