The debut album from the newly-turned 24-year-old arrived in the fall of 1970 and straight away he’s reminiscing about the good old “school days”. What’s the matter with him? The tongue-in-cheek pseudo-grumpy career-tone is set! He proves to be a great character – an imaginative strummer with a lively turn of phrase. One of the rare breed who can simply sit and play his songs with an acoustic guitar and keep you entertained all the way. “Black Uncle Remus” steals the utmost glory on album with many fine moments; I get the impression it’s almost allegorical and if that’s the case then it seems like a fine opening-album choice. “Black uncle Remus got the death letter blues, the hellhound says it time to pay your dues, you really recall the catfish catches, when you're living in the briar patches.” Black is the humour. Get ready for plenty of heart-warming life-tales from a worldly-wise one.
