The Best of Bobby 'Blue' Bland
(2008) Universal Int'l
It's an evil wind
That blows no good
And it's a sad heart that
Won't love like I know it should
Oh, how lonesome you must be, yeah
And it's a shame if you don't
Share your love with me
And it's a heartache
When love is gone
But it's bad and
Even sad later on
There's no one blinder
Than he who won't see, yeah
And it's a shame if you
Don't share you love with me
And I can't help it
Oh, no, if she is gone
You must try to forget
Woah, you must live on
And I said it's a
Good thing to love someone
But it's bad and even sad
When it's not returned
And, oh, how lonesome, yes
You must be, yeah
And it's a shame if you
Don't share your love with me
And I said it's a shame if you
Don't share your love with me
Oh, yeah
(1964,MCA)
繊細で滑らか。うますぎて，薄っぺらに聴こえてしまうかもしれないが，スケールがある一方，感情と技術を抑制したブルースの深み，精神が静かに伝わってくるのがブランドの素晴らしさなのだ。
一方，この洗練されたカントリーナンバーをカバーしたリチャード・マニュエルを，いま一度。
