JJ Grey & MOFRO's Alligator debut, Country Ghettofeatures 12
original JJ Greycompositions that come right out of the Southern
musical and literary tradition. Grey's ear for detail inhabits his
songs, whether it is a story passed down to him from his
grandmother or the tribulations of a childhood friend. His voice
delivers them with an unflinching strength that makes the personal
universal and paints a vivid portrait of an exact time or place
with words and music. Like his songs, his rich, soulful vocals are
forceful and commanding, seemingly old beyond his years. And the
music, from smoldering soul ballads to gospel-fried funk to
straight ahead rock `n' roll, brings it all home with danceable
grooves and a melodic freshness that will stay with you long after
the album ends.
