"Mississippi
native Mose Allison composes and sings rural, as well as very
sophisticated urban blues. His songs evolved into satirical
commentaries on the dilemmas of life and on social/political
absurdities. He developed an original and colorful speaking style of singing that wedded
traditional blues phrasing with the classic jazz phrasing that
Louis Armstrong pioneered. It effectively delivers the drama of Allison’s wry, poignant
and humorous lyrics" |
