Description
Abner Jay was a one-man revelation regarded by some as the last in a line of original Southern Minstrel performers. Part one-man band style electric blues and part hilarious if at times slightly obscene story telling. 'One Man Band ' collects the best material from a series of LPs he self released on his own Brandie Records label out of Memphis. For forty-two years Jay worked as an extraordinary performer where he played electric six-string banjo, guitar, drums, harmonica, and sang all at the same time. He was a wildman with a strong voice who spoke from the heart. Expounding on contemporary topics such as Vietnam and LSD to 'what's six inches long and has two nuts on the end' he said what he felt and judging by his highly expressive delivery felt what he said. An inspired collection of songs that takes you from moments of intense feeling to burlesque style humor often in the same breath. Remarkably slow and intoxicating. You've never heard the Blues quite like this.
