Thee wicked bluesman, Lightnin' Slim, played a mean swamp drenched blues in the style of label mate Slim Harpo. One great chracteristic of these Excello blues artist is the laid back atmosphere their music creates. It is never rushed, rarely urgent, and pretty damn groovy! Slim liked his shit stripped down and chill, usually accompanied by a drummer and harmonica...why dontcha blow dat harp boy!?
