review by Ann Wickstrom

Although not released until 1995, this CD was recorded live in 1993 in Bremen, Germany. Live in Europe is Earl's tribute to his major influences, and Ronnie plays his favourite guitar throughout: a 1962 red Strat.

The fast, driving "San-Ho-Zay" and "Blues for the West Side" go out to Magic Sam; "The Stumble" to Freddie King; "Thank You Mr. T-Bone" to T-Bone Walker and Duke Robillard (who inspired Earl to learn T-Bone). "Thank You Mr. T-Bone" features some cool call-and-response between Earl and Bruce Katz on the Hammond B-3. It segues nicely into "Akos," where you'll find more great B-3 (check out the improvised "Summertime" riff). An all-instrumental offering, Live in Europe includes a handful of tunes found on its predecessor, Still River, including "Szeren," "Rego Park Blues," and the aforementioned "Blues for the West Side." "Contrition," a slow, soulful tune penned by Katz, has some jaw-dropping runs by Earl. One can only imagine what it must have been like to be one of the lucky souls at this show. Still, it's this reviewer's all-time favorite album -- thank you, Mr. Earl.

Ronnie Earl and his band recorded "live in concert" during their European tour '93. High-energy blues at its best. If you've seen him 'live' you know what I am talking about.

Especially for the lovers of straight blues guitar, this album will be more than a welcomed addition to their Ronnie Earl collection.

I always thought that he was best in a live situation, on stage, facing a supportive audience. We tried to capture that special feel, and the high energy of a Ronnie Earl performance.

A treat for all lovers of hard-drivin' guitar blues, performed by one of the greatest guitar players on planet earth.

Ronnie Earl & Duke Robillard 2005 The Duke Meets The Earl

Review by Steve Leggett

The Duke Meets the Earl seems like an obvious album, pairing two of New England's finest contemporary blues guitarists, Duke Robillard and Ronnie Earl, who both share the same sort of hard, clear tone in their playing (Earl actually replaced Robillard in Roomful of Blues when the latter left the group for a solo career). For Earl, who has been working in a kind of jazz blues hybrid style in recent years, it marks a return to straight blues, and with guests like Jimmy McGriff and Mighty Sam McClain aboard on select tracks, 'The Duke Meets the Earl' has the feel of a super session.

Throughout, Earl's guitar is featured in the left channel and Robillard's in the right, leading to some wonderful guitar dialogues, particularly on an epic, nearly 16-minute-long version of Walter Price's "My Tears." Another extended workout occurs on "A Soul That's Been Abused," an Earl original, which features McClain on vocals and stretches out to just over 13 minutes. McGriff brings his Hammond B-3 magic to two cuts, Eddie Taylor's "Lookin' for Trouble" and B.B. King's "I Need You So Bad," while the B-3 part on "A Soul That's Been Abused" is handled by Dave Limina. Other highlights include covers of T-Bone Walker's "Two Bones and a Pick," Magic Sam's "What Have I Done Wrong," and Earl's smooth, clear slide style on another original, "Zeb's Thing." With only eight tracks, but clocking in at over 70 minutes, The Duke Meets the Earl gives these two fine guitarists plenty of room to talk to each other, and the result is a classy set of no-frills contemporary blues, with just the slightest hint of jazz to keep it all smooth.


Tracklist:

01 - West Side Shuffle 07:47

02 - Two Bones & A Pick 08:09

03 - My Tears 16:00

04 - Lookin For Trouble 04:29

05 - What Have I Done Wrong 06:46

06 - Zeb's Thing 07:33

07 - I Need You So Bad 08:17

08 - A Soul That's Been Abused 13:09

Albumnotes

Ronnie Earl's debut for Stony Plain is (almost all) instrumental, featuring his working band, plus one track with Boston's Silver Leaf Gospel Singers. Ronnie is one of his generations most acclaimed blues guitarists and the winner of two W.C. Handy Awards. With over a dozen releases since the late eighties, Ronnie says this is his best studio blues recording and we feel the same way.

His healing and spiritual approach to guitar playing delivers each note with ultimate passion.
