Listen to “Black Hand Blues” on MySpace.
Jolie Holland’s “Black Hand Blues” (from Catalpa) is the closest thing you can get to the sound of a classic era without trying to sound like you’re trying to recreate that classic sound. Just listen: it sounds classic. But it doesn’t sound contrived. It’s not copycatting anything. It is what it is, which is the spirit of the old blues songs reincarnated. Simple. Pure. Blues. Ah.
