Big Mike Griffin - Sittin' Here With Nothing (1995)

Big Bike Griffin's big blues
I
t starts with the gutsy funky "Somebody's Been Talkin'", a Little Milton number revisited with heavy bass & drums, groovy horn riffs, pulsing organ and flashes of burning guitar. It continues in the same vein with "Satisfied", another Little Milton song. The third track, Percy Strother's "Love Is Growing Cold", is a slow blues where Griffin's scorching guitar lightnings are entwined with exciting organ parts by Clayton Ivey. The same blood runs through the entire album : rhythm and blues with as much funky rhythm and soulful blues, and a bit of jazzy groove.
