Little Charlie & The Nightcats - Walkin' In The Shadow Of The Blues

Подробнее о видео

Album: Shadow Of The Blues | Official Website: | | Lyrics:
There’s a dark cloud over me that I just can’t seem to lose,
There’s a dark cloud over me that I just can’t seem to lose.
And I’ve got nowhere to turn, I’m just walkin’ in the shadow of the blues.
I pray for mercy but it looks like mercy has been refused.
I beg, please have mercy on me baby but looks like mercy has been refused.
It gets so hard to see my way when I’m walkin’ in the shadow of the blues

I just keep walkin’, wearin’ out my shoes.
I just keep walkin’, tryin’ to save these blues.
I just keep walkin’, every night and day,
‘Cos I know that I've been wrong and now I’ve got to pay.
Mmm, tell me now, what in this world I’ve got to do.
Ooh, tell me, darlin’, what in this world I’ve got to do.
Though I could still open the door, man,
Don’t try to walkin’ in the shadow of the blues.

"Powerful...outrageous...wonderful....Baty's immediately recognizable guitar style and Estrin's uniquely twisted and humorous lyrical vision [make] Little Charlie and the Nightcats one of the most successful proponents of the blues/swing /rock/jazz synthesis so popular today."
--Living Blues

Sacramento-based blues, swing and jump masters Little Charlie & The Nightcats had much in common with their feline counterparts. They took great (musical) leaps and always landed on their feet, they were constantly on the prowl (gigging all over the world), and, with all of the various styles of music they played, they seemed to have many lives. Their nine remarkable career albums combined unsurpassed musicianship and inventive lyrical vision with their deep understanding of blues and jazz traditions to produce music that was both technically brilliant and soulfully streetwise. "Endlessly impressive," raved the Associated Press. "Marvelously entertaining and brilliantly played," agreed the San Francisco Examiner.
