Traveling man

"If you are a Watermelon Slim fan and go get this- two shows from his career from 2016 sitting solo and playing his guitar while howling on stage- this is what Slim is all about. No accompaniment, no frills, just Slim howling and picking and sliding a bit only as he can. Four of the songs are new to his recorded repertoire; if you've followed him they will be familiar from his live shows. Those new to slim have an opportunity to see what this interesting and eclectic musician is all about. I enjoyed this double live solo CD- it's well worth a listen!".

" ... an excellent example of his penchant for purity, a two-disc set that finds him playing solo on stage before a pair of appreciative audiences. There's no flash or frivolity embellished in these bare-boned performances, but then again, given his aptitude and ability, there's no need whatsoever to pad the proceedings. Slim's not only a remarkable slide and bottleneck blues guitarist, but also an expressive singer whose words sometimes seem to tumble out spontaneously, a stream of random commentary that finds him simply wailing without worry or restraint ... If authenticity counts for anything - as well it should - Watermelon Slim has indeed achieved the status of a musical master. Consider Live [i.e. Traveling Man] the essential evidence needed".
