Mississippi blues singer R.L. Burnside first recorded in the early 60's but it wasn't until the 90's for him to really take charge and tour extensively to promote his albums. By this time R.L. Burnside was starting to get hip with the garage rock/blues artists like Jon Spencer... being on the cool Fat Possum Records label probably helped. His last album 'A Bothered Mind' was released in 2004, a year before his death. 'A Bothered Mind' is blues for the dancefloor and includes many guests with some remixing, hip-hop and modern effects added. "Someday Baby" was produced by 'Lyrics Born' to great effect. A great album for the casual blues fan or the blues purist with an open mind.
