Description:
Guitarist/vocalist and arch Republican Lee Atwater, along with a star-studded list of soul artists, ignite on 13 blue chip live performances of great R&B songs. Chuck Jackson, Carla Thomas, B.B. King, Isaac Hayes, Sam Moore, and gospel singer Bobby Jones contribute vocals; and Michael Toles, the Memphis Horns, ex-Motown bassist Bob Babbitt and Billy Preston, the music. This pleasing set is set off by Chuck Jackson and Sam Moore's scathing rendition of "Hold On I'm Coming"; Isaac Hayes' "I'm in the Mood"; B.B. King's guitar and vocal licks on "Red, Hot & Blue" and "Buzz Me"; and Jackson and Carla Thomas' fiery version of "Rescue Me." This CD will make for a delightful addition to an R&B collector's stash.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Bad Boy" does Good
As a mobile DJ with a large political client list, this is the CD I go to for the first and last cuts at fundraisers, announcement events, bull roasts and town hall meetings for one reason. Everybody knows and loves the tunes and artists that put this together.I first read about the collection int he biography of Lee Atwater. He played these tunes as a teenager in garage bands, and at the peak of his professional career in American politics, pulled together the artists everyone loved to hear. Isaac Hayes, Chuck Jackson, B.B. King. Sam Moore, Arletta Nightengale, Billy Preston, Carla Thomas - these are classic names in rhythm and blues.Isaac Hayes is much ore than "Shaft". Billy Preston played with George Harrison in the "Concert for Bangladesh". The Memphis Horns set the standard for the brass lines from the sixties through the nineties. B.B. King - what more can I say? And the vocals, that make you want to sing along. Why is this stuff so good? It was what we were raised on, that's why."Knock on Wood", Hold on, I'm Coming", "Rescue Me" - you can hear the melody and words running through your mind at the mention of the titles. This CD contains those songs plus ten more to make your heart sing.From the party at your home to the road trip tot he iPod, this is a must have CD for your collection.
5.0 out of 5 stars Worth The Money
This is a Cd that is well worth your money so don't hesitate to purchase it! There are a couple of songs that I didn't care for but most of them are just what I expected and better. That is the way with most Cd's as we all know. It starts out strong and will get you movin'. It is a shame that this is the only Cd that Lee was involved in. My advice is to buy it...I am not disappointed and I play it frequently.
5.0 out of 5 stars The Blues Brothers with a political twist
What can I say? This is a great album! If you are a fan of the Stax-Memphis sound; if you are a fan of the Blues Brothers; you will love the sound of Lee Atwater with his all-star backup group. There are are some fantastic tracks on this CD. It's not to be missed.
4.0 out of 5 stars Lee Atwater does the blues and a great job. RIP Lee.
Poor Lee, he did not have a good ending but he was a great performer and started the yummy Red Hot and Blue BBQ place in DC when I lived there...!Love this album.
5.0 out of 5 stars great music from an unlikely source
Great collection of talent. Still listen to the album frequently. Possibly the only decent and commendable thing Lee Atwater ever did in his short, tumultuous and contemptible time on earth.
5.0 out of 5 stars Five Stars
Who would have thought Lee was so blue
5.0 out of 5 stars Great CD
I really wish I had bought this CD when it was new! It is WONDERFUL! I love "blues" music and have enjoyed this CD immensely.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great Production
This is a great CD. It brings together a large number of blues stars for (what sound like) impromptu jam sessions. The track ordering and sound quality are fantastic.
