Keb' Mo': Keb' Mo' LTD | NUM Die Version auf Vinyl LP in limitierte Einzeln nummeriert remastered Auflage. Diese besondere Auflage wurde veröffentlicht in USA im Verlag Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab In Zusammenarbeit mit Epic am 24. Januar 2012.

Keb' Mo' (1994) ist das Debüt von Keb' Mo', eine großartige Country-Blues-Scheibe. Keb' Mo' stößt in neue Richtungen vor und versuchte, die angesagte Slacker-Revolution in seine Musik zu integrieren, ohne die Tradition des Blues zu vernachlässigen.

Sein mutiges Gitarrenspiel, leidenschaftlicher Gesang sowie sein überraschend versiertes Songwriting macht Keb' Mo's Debüt zu einem Country-Blues-Klassiker.

Product Information

1994 Self-Titled Major-Label Debut a Folk-Blues Classic! Pure Blues: National Steel Guitar Playing, Raw Harmonica Solos, Soulful Strumming Infuse Originals and Pair of Covers! In an age where most contemporary bluesmen strive to mimic the past and pattern their music after the greats, Keb' Mo' is content to be himself. Original, charismatic, and immensely gifted, the guitarist / vocalist (born Kevin Moore) brings country blues in the late 20th century on his stunning self-titled Epic debut, which quickly climbed the charts and turned the former backing instrumentalist into a household name. Replete with gritty textures, close-up vocals, and resplendent acoustics, Mobile Fidelity's scintillating analog version of this 1994 set finally possesses the fidelity that brings Mo's Delta strains out of the backwoods and onto a lively back porch. Half-speed mastered from the original tapes, this numbered limited-edition 180g LP represents the very first time that Mo's watershed album has been given a much-needed sonic facelift. Gone are the hazes that obscured his singing, artificial ceilings that blunted the highs, and digital fog that interfered with the multitude of illuminating tones, details, and notes. What's revealed is startling intimacy and soothing emotion, Mo's gorgeous vocal timbres and inflections given equal space with his guitar, harmonica, and pace. Finally, a great-sounding contemporary blues record that doesn't resort to derivative recycling and bland revivalism. The son of Southern parents, Mo' channels his heritage via a batch of superb folksy songs that relax, refresh, and regale.
