Swamp Rock, Blues Rock, Heart Rock, 1973-as album.
Limited edition dupla bakelit lemez 2LP újra kiadás, 2019.
This 1973 album features one of Tony Joe’s most beautiful and moving breaking up songs with „For Ol’ Time Sake”, in which you can feel the pain and the need of the one that’s just been left behind, and the killer instrumental title track. There’s the ballad, “Ol’ Mother Earth”, but it’s the last track which blows in like a cold breeze off a lake. „Did Somebody Make A Fool Out Of You” is among his best ever examples of songwriting, singing and guitar playing. The centerpiece of the tune is an acoustic guitar solo that has never lost its power and depth. Co-produced by White and legendary Atlantic producer Tom Dowd ‘Home Made Ice Cream’ is very much a back porch acoustic affair and it’s “Swampy”.
„From the fantastic opening groove of ‘Saturday Nite in Oak Grove, Louisiana’ to soul searching ballads like ‘For Ol’ Times Sake’ and ‘Ol’ Mother Earth’, Homemade Ice Cream will sustain your interest with great melodies and superb playing. And all are sung with charisma and sensitivity featuring White’s husky baritone voice.” „This is, after all, the man who gave ‘Polk Salad Annie” to Elvis (although White did hit the charts with it) and ‘Rainy Night in Georgia‘ to Brook Benton, as well as creating hits for Dusty Springfield, Hank Williams Jr. and many others..
