notes
Mississippi Reminiscence, E's fourth project
celebrates a departure for this artist, setting the
stage for yet another role as he puts a soulful and
unmistakable "E" touch on Muddy Water's ("Long
Distance Call").
The 10-track Mississippi Reminiscence is far and away
the most stark and deeply personal work of E's
career. Based on original material, songs like
"Graduation Day" deals directly with E's own inner
self.
E also tackles three classics of the blues' idiom, "Sittin' On Top of the World," "I Ain't Superstitious" "Voodoo Man" and reinvents them with his guitar style vocal moans that takes you back to the blues most primitive origins, yet sounding like the most modern blues of the day.
E does not envy musicians who spend countless hours in the studio trying to procure the perfect recording. Every track on Mississippi Reminiscence was recorded in one and two takes. E seemingly transported himself to a different existential plane, rocking back and forth, audibly groaning, while excavating tangled guitar notes from
his black Ibenez Talman.
The partnering of E’s voice, guitar and harps, is revealing in itself. His vocal phrasing, often behind the measure of his own rhythms, creates a sound as distinct as any in blues.

Mesmerising stuff!!!
author: Patse HemsleyWhen I saw Voodoo Child listed on this album, I groaned, thinking that there are some songs that really should be left alone, and Hendrix's "Voodoo Child" is one of them. It's sacred to me... at least it was until I heard E's rendition which stopped me in my tracks, and reminded me that E doesn't do "shoulds". His version is softer yet darker, more shadowy and powerful, and sneaks up on you to prise both mind and heart open. Like the other tracks on this album, his blues harp and voice keeps you coming back for more.
The world needs more of this richness in it’s music.
author: Zosar Music/S.M.Mississippi Reminiscence is a collection of quality material performed with raw honesty. E’s Rendition of “Long Distance Call,” starts with a guitar intro that is played skillfully with his innermost emotions, it’s followed by his majestic storytelling vocals. E’s work is pure artistry. The world needs more of this richness in it’s music.
