Release Notes:
--------
You could take new Rough Trade charge Benjamin Booker as an open book:
bourbon-drenched vocals, thrift-store chic and a New Orleans base on the banks
of the Mississippi. His debut lives and breathes the Deep South, from the Chuck
Berry references (most effective on opener 'Violent Shiver') to the slower, more
hushed tones of 'I Thought I Heard You Screaming', which sees Booker take his
vocal cues straight from Bobbie Gentry's late-Æ60s peak.

It's also something of a love affair with the guitar, with Booker and his band
firing off Zep-style grandiosity ('Have You Seen My Son?'), proper Bolan pomp
('Happy Homes') and, on 'Wicked Waters', a reworking of Eddie Cochran's Æ50s
classic 'Twenty Flight Rock'. The best song here though, is 'Old Hearts', which
takes the blueprint honed by his rockÆnÆroll forebears and transports them bang
into 2014, gnarly and gloriously unrepentant.
